Hello!

My name is Rae and I live in Texas.  I enjoy a great life with my husband of nearly 30 years, our two adult sons, two poodles, and a cat.  I’m a curriculum and instructional coach.  I’ve taught 4th grade Language Arts, Pre-Kindergarten, Music for Kindergarten through 8th grades, Art for Pre-Kindergarten – 8th grades, private music lessons (piano, flute, and voice), directed choirs and praise teams (adults, youth, and children), served as director of children’s

I’m a curriculum and instructional coach.  I’ve taught 4th grade Language Arts, Pre-Kindergarten, Music for Kindergarten through 8th grades, Art for Pre-Kindergarten – 8th grades, private music lessons (piano, flute, and voice), directed choirs and praise teams (adults, youth, and children), served as director of children’s ministries, served as a coach and a judge for ACSI speech and spelling competitions, and some other fun stuff.

My education includes a bachelors degree in Education (EC-4) (Cum Laude), a masters in Curriculum and Instruction (Magna Cum Laude), and a masters in Educational Leadership (Summa Cum Laude).

I love to write poetry and compose music.

My teaching style is filled with interactive lessons that meet students where they are and take them where they need to go!

My Educational Philosophy: I believe that when I develop and nurture genuine and trusting relationships with my students that they will follow me to any educational destination.
