About Beth

I have been working with children all of my life. I started at the age of 7 working with my mother in our church nursery, as well as helping teach classes at church. In High School, I worked as the Nursery Coordinator at our church. During my college years, I taught Sunday school for children with disabilities. After college, I became a teacher for children with intellectual disabilities for 4 1/2 years. During the time that I worked teaching, I spent 2 years tutoring on the side. Most recently, I have been working for 4 years with a young man who has autism and a seizure disorder. I am currently in my 4th year of teaching in a K-5 Autism unit in Manatee County. I love working with children. I think it is very important to instill in children young the love of reading, exploring their world, and being active.
