However, I have worked with reading at the middle-school levels, as well.

Paige
Developing the Differrentiated Learner!
I love math, and have enjoyed teaching it to students who need help. I understand that math can be complicated, and it is not something you get right away. I believe with practice and skill one can be better able to understand it. I know this because I also grew up not liking math but, ironically, ended up teaching it. I have taught Math for the past 4 years in one of the lowest performing schools in the city of Chicago. However, due to my professional development as a Math educator I was abl... Read more
