I am extremely excited to be involved in this learning community. Personalized Learning is such an innovative, focused educational program that supports students in meeting their own potential. With parents and teachers working closely together, students are able to get the attention that they need. What a great option in education!

I love to see that "spark," when my students are excited to learn something new. How great it is that students and their families get to choose the way that works best for them. I believe Personalized Learning is a fabulous way to go.

I love teaching the multimedia art classes and grammar class to all my eager students at the new Colfax center. I enjoy working for CORE @ TCA because I meet such interesting students and their dedicated parents. It’s great to work with students in this unique school setting over several years’ time and watch them grow and achieve success.

I've chosen this work because my greatest joy as a teacher is working one on one with students. Personalized Learning offers me a chance to really track academic progress as well as personal growth. It's really satisfying.
