What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a remote education, learning, curriculum, implementation, or training role where I can transfer my classroom expertise to supporting educators, learners, programs, or education products.

At The Kindezi School West, I teach 5th Grade ELA and Social Studies, implementing SAVVAS and Write Score through explicit instruction, modeling, and guided practice. I use student data and assessments to adjust lessons and target literacy support.

I also lead small-group rotations, using graphic organizers and sentence stems to scaffold writing and comprehension. Google Classroom, Kami, and digital learning tools support students’ writing practice and independent learning.

Previously, I taught creative writing across K–8 at The Kindezi School West, adapting instruction for different developmental levels. I used writing resources including Savvas, Write Score, and i-Ready.

Across my teaching roles, I’ve taught ELA, social studies, science, and math, and used assessment data to inform instruction. I’m seeking a remote education, learning, curriculum, implementation, or training role where I can apply my classroom experience to support educators, learners, programs, or education products.
