Ms. Trisha
My journey with Read Smart began as a homeschooling mother who needed help filling gaps with my youngest son. We fell in love with Read Smart and how it helped our family so when the opportunity arose to join the team I was thrilled!
Children lay the groundwork for learning with reading. If they can read well then any knowledge they wish to access is available to them. It really does make them “ready for life!” Being a part of those “ah ha” moments and seeing the smiles and joy that come when their confidence rises is such a blessing to me as a mother and teacher. The most rewarding thing is seeing each child’s confidence grow and flourish as they gain tools and understanding that cause them to soar.
I’m thrilled to get to play a part in unlocking your child’s future and cheering on their hard work as they embark on a journey of learning!
Ms. Sarah
Hi! My name is Ms. Sarah, and I am a teacher at Read Smart. I am so thankful for the opportunity to teach, because it is a ticket to influence children’s lives in so many ways. On the practical level, reading lays the foundation for all other subjects and stages of learning. If the door to reading remains locked, then so does the door to all other academic discoveries, and I get to help unlock that door! I am also a firm believer in the fact that when you minister practically to a child, you then have the opportunity to minister emotionally to them as well. I love the moments where I can pause and speak what they personally need to hear that day, whether it is words of affirmation, correction, or comfort-to name a few. It is more important to me what kind of person they are becoming than how well they are performing. With that said, when a child is thriving on the inside, it flows over into every other area of life, including academics. It thrills me to be a voice of truth and encouragement. So much of what we believe about ourselves is shaped during childhood, so if I have a mouth to speak truth, I plan on using it!
Ms. Olivia
Hi! My name is Ms. Olivia. I am so grateful to be involved in introducing and creating a love of reading with your children. I believe that reading paves the way for other subjects, and the creativity of a child to flourish. One of the greatest joys of teaching is helping children see their own strengths and how they learn, to help them succeed in all aspects of life. Being able to see your child grow confidently, acknowledge their own potential, and see them apply it to life is so rewarding. My classroom is just a small part of their journey through life, but I know the importance it has, and I do not take the position lightly. I cannot wait to meet your child and help start them on their journey to reaching their goals!
