My Students

My school is a preK-3 school in Illinois, located in the south suburbs of Chicago. My students come from predominantly middle-class backgrounds, and they have a thirst for learning as much as they can. The majority of my students come from homes that foster a love of learning early on. It is my mission to ensure that the students continue this love of learning throughout their school years.

My students are sweet, caring, funny and love learning (as a fourth-year teacher, I am loving learning right along with them)!

My Project

Get Your Teach On is an interactive conference that uses some of the most current research based strategies to help light the elementary classroom on fire. The Get Your Teach On Team shares their passion and enthusiasm for education and gives you their tips, tricks, best practices, and teacher secrets to building a successful, engaging, & RIGOROUS classroom.

As a fourth year teacher, I am always looking for opportunities to grow as an educator.

Get Your Teach On will help me feel empowered, motivated, and prepared to create dynamic lessons that will challenge my students and leave them hungry for more.

Please help me attend this amazing conference and help me become a better teacher for my students.
