About Me
My name is Sandra
I’m still happily teaching in the classroom after many years—more than I ever expected when I first started! Over the years, I’ve taught kindergarten through third grade, and I still feel that same excitement when a young learner makes a connection and their eyes light up with understanding.
Teaching is never “set it and forget it” for me. I’m constantly reflecting on my practice, exploring new ideas, and staying up to date with the latest research so I can give my students the best possible start.
My academic background includes two bachelor’s degrees, a postgraduate diploma in English Language Learning, and a master’s degree in curriculum and instruction with a specialization in early childhood literacy. But more than the credentials, it’s my deep passion for helping beginning readers succeed that drives everything I do.
