Experience

I am moving to Australia in five months in order to teach an Elementary Montessori Classroom and in the meantime, I want to guide as many student's learning as possible. I have tutored English to young students when traveling to different orphanages in Costa Rica and fell in love with the one-on-one relationships that were bonded. I have worked with many different ages, however I have the most experience teaching lower elementary. I have lead many unique levels of reading groups along with gifted and talented math classrooms. I have worked as a Summer Camp Counselor for three summers and enjoy variety in the learning environment and approaches to mastering a concept.

Hobbies

I have an extensive background in the arts (painting, poetry, drama, music) and just recently completed my Masters thesis on the importance creative expression has for optimal learning development. With my free time I am either doing yoga, reading/writing poetry at the local coffee shop, learning the guitar, or finding a river or mountain in nature to go explore. My highest passion is learning new things and inspiring children to follow their heart's interest and the beauty of learning new things.
