Hi There! My name is Michelle, and I have been in education for over twenty years! My specialties include: English, literacy, reading, writing, speaking & listening. I also have a background in Special and Alternative Education, as well as Theater and Art! I have taught English/ELA and other subjects at every grade level. I LOVE reaching and teaching students, helping them gain confidence in their own abilities, and recognize their potential. I see myself as a "coach" and mentor. I am not only a teacher, but a fellow learner!
