Strong English for School and Life
Ms. Alyssa
I am in my 13th year of teaching and have experience working with students in grades PK through 3rd. My instructional focus is on building strong reading comprehension, writing, grammar, and phonics skills. I am passionate about literacy, enjoy reading myself, and strive to foster a love of reading in my students. I am also a certified ESL teacher, dedicated to supporting diverse learners.
