My name is Merry. I am a 2nd Grade Teacher and have been teaching for the last 13 years. I have a Bachelor’s and Masters in Education and am fluent in Spanish. I love watching kids learn and grow. I believe in helping them find success by building a growth mindset and creating an environment where everyone feels safe and respected. My primary focus when meeting your kiddos is to work on building a relationship of respect. I am also a parent of two boys who are 6 and 21 months old and look forward to finding ways to supplement my income so that we can travel and I can provide more enrichment opportunities for them.
