Teaching the Teacher

My Project

I have always loved school, loved learning, and consider myself a lifelong learner.

Please help me broaden my knowledge by taking the Praxis exam to gain knowledge and be a better teacher for my students.

This will help me better serve my kindergarteners in the areas of Education of Young Children, Teaching Reading in Elementary School, and Early Intervention. I am excited to learn more and challenge myself in these areas.

My students come to my class at the beginning of the year with a variety of backgrounds, education, and knowledge. By challenging myself to learn the content and taking these Praxis Exams, I will better be able to instruct my students at each of their varying levels. I will have a better understanding of effective reading, early intervention, and teaching strategies for young children.
