About Alyssa

Experience: 8 yrs

Hello! My name is Alyssa, and I am a passionate educator who loves helping children grow in confident and discover the joy of learning! I am currently teaching first-grade. I hold a graduate degree in education and am currently pursuing my Master's degree in ELL (English Language Learner) Education. I have worked with children for over 8 years and have spent the last 4 years as a certified elementary school teacher. One of my favorite parts of teaching is seeing students experience their "aha!" moments when something finally clicks. I strive to make learning engaging, encouraging, and personalized to each child's needs. I believe strong relationships and open communication with parents are essential for student success. My goal is to create a safe, positive, and welcoming environment where children feel comfortable learning, asking questions, and building confidence in their abilities.

I helped my cousin hire Alyssa for their 6 year old son. They immigrated here from Vietnam a few years ago and Alyssa has been so helpful with practicing my nephew's English at home. My cousin says that Alyssa is very gentle and patient and his reading skills have improved through the phonics lessons they've been having together. So grateful for Alyssa and the boost she's given my nephew that will set him up for success in the future. The literacy crisis is real and Alyssa is helping combat that one child at a time!
