We are all natural storytellers, and earning how to write an effective essay is a matter of honing this abilit... Read more
Daniel
Elementary school teacher at CPS
I have been teaching grades 3-8 for the past 12 years. I have taught reading, social studies, language arts, and math. My specialty is math though, and I have an average rate of 75% of my students meeting or exceeding their goal on the NWEA test.

I really enjoy teaching and I find nothing better than seeing a student succeed from me helping them. One thing tha... Read more
