Hi! I’m currently a teaching assistant at a private K-8 school in the area. I work at the school Mondays and Tuesdays, and I’m primarily with 2nd-5th graders. I’m also going back to college to get my teaching degree and credential. I’ve always loved working with kids and am so grateful for the opportunity to begin my career in education! As I tell my students everyday - math is my favorite subject! It’s always been my strongest subject, and I’ve really enjoyed getting to help students and teachers with their math!
