Professionally…

Hi teacher friends!  I’m Nikki and I’m here to serve you.  I graduated from Stetson University in 1997 with an Elementary Ed. degree.  A few years later I received a Masters from the University of South Florida.  Since then, I have become certified to teach English and Social Science through grade 12 as well as being gifted and reading endorsed.  I have spent over a decade working with dyslexic students using an intensive remedial approach.  I have been in education 24 years with a focus on writing.  Many of my co-teachers were frustrated with teaching students to write.  They asked me to make it easy, and I did!  I have spent 12 years making writing instructional videos that create a co-teaching experience in the classroom.  I teach, while you facilitate the lessons.  I truly have a heart to make teaching easy and effective.  Let’s face it, we all have a lot to do.  When it comes to essays, I got you!

Personally…

I have a wonderful husband of 22 years and 4 daughters.  Two have flown the nest and two are teenagers.  We live on the lake in Florida and enjoy the warm weather.  I teach 5th grade and consider it a hobby.  I love my morning Coke in a foam cup filled with ice.  It’s the little things.  If there is anything I can create to help make your classroom better, let me know.  My heart is to help you!
