About

I am a fourth grade teacher in a small growing district. I served as team leader of the fourth grade for six years. I also started a summer math tutorial program last year to help all students study to improve their math skills. The students used the IPads to study different math programs. Some of the programs included Texas Think Through Math, Reflex Math, and Reasoning Minds. The program lasted for two months. I also started a after-school program to help students with their homework. The students get help and strategies from certified teachers for one hour on Tuesday and Thursday.
