When asked about her teaching philosophy, she responded:

It is my core belief that all children can become successful if given the right tools. Knowing that all students learn differently is essential. Adjusting my instruction to their specific needs is vital in the development of a well-rounded student. I must take the time to learn about each of my students’ specific needs (home life included). Once those needs are identified, I must then plan my instruction accordingly. I then develop an individual plan (lesson/activity) for that student.
