Hi! My name is Melissa Hardwick. For as long as I can remember I have wanted to be a teacher. I really enjoy working with students and teaching them new skills. I have been a teacher for over 10 years. I have taught pre-k, kinder, first, second and third grades. My favorite subject to teach is reading. I love teaching students to read and opening their eyes to all the possibilities that reading opens up. I love working with small groups of students and helping them figure out how to do something that they did not know how to do before. Seeing the pride and excitement on their faces is worth all the time and effort. I also love teaching math. I really enjoy hearing students explain their thinking about how they arrived at an answer. I love the variety of ways you can approach a problem and seeing those various ways displayed in my students. I love showing students that they can use their style of thinking to solve problems and helping them figure out what style they prefer.
