I am an adaptable and focused individual with a background in teaching K-8. I have my B. A. in elementary education, my M. Ed. in special education, and my M. A. T. in middle grades with a specialty in social studies. Although I am licensed K-12, I prefer grades K-6. I enjoy focusing my instruction on the needs of my students and helping individuals realize their own strengths and passions. I believe that school should be fun and productive and that teaching should foster a lifelong love of learning. Outside of teaching, I enjoy writing, traveling, and trying new things. If I could pick one place to visit again and one place I've never been I would visit Iceland again and Australia for the first time. I look forward to chatting with you and getting to know your student better! Please feel free to message me with any questions you may have.

Words can not describe what a joy it has been to have Allison in our lives. Her enthusiasm and calm nature guides our kids through their studies each day. Having her during Covid has been a blessing and we feel fortunate to have found her. Allison has great attention to detail. She has detailed lesson plans and communicates well with our teachers at school. She devices her lessons and teaches with clarity and kindness. I have seen my 4th grader make some very large leaps of both independence of study and comprehension through Allison's teachings. My daughters reading level has quickly improved along with her confidence. Allison's knowledge of social studies has been a treat, normally a boring and least favorite subject for most children, she has brought fun and enjoyment to it. Studying Native Americans she taught my daughter basket making and the importance it had to their heritage and society. Examples like this really make Allison an exceptional teacher!
