Instruct K-4th grade students. I provide intensive reading instruction, practice exercises, and assessment.

Developed and implemented an ESE program. The program serves students in grades 3-8th grade. The Learning Lab provides specialized instruction in a Resource Room environment,

I taught ESE students in a private school, specifically Sacred Heart School, during the school years of 2010 and 2011. Catapult Curriculum and supervision was the foundation of my instruction. I taught individuals and small groups to approximately 15 students/week. PBCSD provided Education Plans. The Plans were implemented during my tenure with Catapult.

In 1997 I founded The ELLes School. Originally the school was named K Street Day School because it was located on N. K Street in Lake Worth, FL.The school operated out of 2 classrooms at The First Congregational Church. The school began as a middle school for students with identified learning disabilities.In 2000 the school moved to North A Street, into the education building of Lake Worth Christian Reformed Church. At that time the school was renamed. The name ELLES represents my parents' names, Ellynn and Leslie. They provided the "seed" money to begin the school in 1997.The school thrived and provided education to numerous students. The school closed in 2010. As the founder, I discovered that competition for a private school was too great. Furthermore, the economy made it difficult for student enrollment.The ELLES School was a joy while it was operation. The many students who attended are now grown. It is with great hope that their time in the school led them to productive lives.
