Description
													Hi, my name is Kelsey, and I am so excited to meet all of you! I have been teaching in public, private, and international schools across the World for the past 10 years. Most recently, I taught a PYP 4th grade class in an International School in Thailand. I have also founded and led my own Homeschool in Costa Rica a few years back! In my class, you will experience a fun and engaging atmosphere with a lot of interaction. I believe that connecting with my students and understanding who they are is the foundation to a successful learning experience for all of us. I think the best part of bookclub classes is the opportunity to discuss big ideas, listen to other's opinons, and share our own experiences and connections to the book. I recently read the book Front Desk and definitely recommend it! It teaches us that through determination and community, we can all make a difference and change the world for the better. I can't wait to see you in my classes!
