Hi! I've been teaching at Minue School since 2009. I taught 3rd and 4th grade for several years before moving to work with 1st grade and kindergarten. I absolutely love teaching, and I feel so lucky to be a Minue School first grade teacher. It's very exciting to be able to work with students at the very beginning of their school experience and to teach them all the essential skills that they will need to succeed in school. I believe strongly in the importance of treating students with respect and kindness and teaching them how to interact in positive ways with each other by encouraging honesty, politeness, and compassion. It is a joy to see the students progress throughout the year, and I greatly enjoy seeing them in the halls as they move through each school year at Minue.
