Let me introduce myself and my philosophy for teaching young children!
I have been a pre-school teacher for over 25 years in Long Beach. I have such a passion for teaching young children I recently decided to take on a new adventure and this is it! I believe that each child is seen as an individual. It is my philosophy to help each child move toward their highest personal development by nurturing them and using positive reinforcement. I believe that children should feel comfortable in their environment to explore and make mistakes at their own rate. Children will learn as I provide age appropriate materials and a FUN curriculum. I believe in teaching the" whole child" through all of their senses (meaning we will get messy). I use an emergent curriculum taking advantage of every 'spontaneous teachable moment". We will be learning through science, art, music, literature, and good old fashion play (which develops social skills). I also believe that learning in the outdoors is mind stimulating, great for physical health and is fun. We do live in Southern California, much of our learning will take place in my outdoor classroom (nature). It is my sincere desire to provide a warm, safe, loving environment filled with plenty of joyful noise where each child will flourish socially, emotionally and intellectually.
