Hello parents, students, and teachers! Welcome! My name is Julie. I have over 20 years of experience teaching in both traditional and virtual classrooms. I specialize in elementary reading, math and ESL instruction, and have successfully taught thousands of online classes with high student retention. My background also includes leadership roles in teacher mentoring and business management. I have lived and traveled all over the world, and I have interacted with students from all different countries and cultures. I focus on creating a fun, structured environment where each child feels seen and successful. I care about helping students grow - not just academically, but as learners for life. I enjoy exercising and taking walks on the beach. I have visited beaches with sand in various colors, including pink, white, green, black, and brown. I look forward to working with you!
