About Joann

I started as a babysitter when I was a teen myself! Since then I've worked as a nanny/babysitter for infants and toddlers. I've tutored elementary and middle school aged kids in math, english, and Spanish. I lived in Spain for a year and was a teaching assistant at an elementary school and taught after school english classes in small groups from 4-8 students aged 2-12 years old across all the classes. Most recently I've worked here at Targhee as a ski and snowboard instructor for all ages starting at 2 years old! I think it's really rewarding work and most of the time it's a lot of fun! Even when it's hard it's energizing in a way and it's always an honor to be a part of a kid's safe space and to see them grow in skills and activities! I'm a very calm and organized person but I love playing games and coming up with a fantastic make believe world to hang out in!
