Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceI had a second grade student who struggled with reading. He came to me at the beginning of second grade on a pre kindergarten reading level. I work closely with him, his family, and my teaching team and we were able to not only catch him up but to exceed his reading level expectations by the end of 3rd grade. He is thriving and still continues to grow as he progresses each year.
