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.

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

I love working with students in small groups and 1:1--it's easier to have in-depth conversations, practice critical thinking skills, and meet each student where they're at. Certified to teach history to students in grades 9-12, I bring an inter... Read more
