My Students

I am excited to announce that I will be a first-year teacher meeting a brand new bunch of kiddos! I will be a third-grade teacher at FES in SC!

I had a wonderful student teaching experience with students who loved to learn through student engagement.

My students got the most out of their learning when my mentor teacher and I created hands-on learning experiences.

My students and I feed off each other's enthusiasm and love for learning! Thank you for helping our class!

My Project

This professional development is an opportunity for educators to come together to create an environment where we can put into practice our different teaching styles to better our students' lessons in the classroom. This conference will allow us as educators to fill our hearts with joy and excitement for our classes, our co-workers, our administrations, and most importantly our students.

The most amazing idea behind this conference is that it is filled with everyday classroom teachers around the U.S who share a similar bond—love for their students.

This conference will allow me to weave together various teaching styles, multiple learning styles, true diversity, and traditional education with a modern twist and bring it back into my classroom at home. These resources that I will take home with me will allow me to improve on the content I provide for my students.
