About Amanda

Hi! My name is Amanda. As a current certified elementary school teacher in the state of CT, I am very creative, reliable, responsible, and fun-loving! Prior to my undergraduate and graduate days, I developed my child care experiences helping out in my family's in-home daycare business, am a former 10-year employee of the Southington-Cheshire Community YMCA as well as YMCA Camp Sloper where I held many roles including a Senior Counselor, the Arts & Crafts Director, and Extended-Day Director. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Roger Williams University in 2016 with my Bachelor's in Elementary Education and a minor in Spanish. Then, in 2020, I obtained my Master's degree in Multicultural, Bilingual Ed & TESOL from SCSU. On top of teaching full time, I also am a dance instructor, a passion of mine since the age of 5! Personally and professionally, I am passionate about fostering academic, social, and emotional success for children and look forward to hearing from you!
