About Me

I teach 3-5 year OLDS the skills to be proficient in literacy and Math

I am a veteran teacher with more than ten years of experience improving students outcomes

My name is Canissa and I am a career educator with a passion for ensuring all of my students are successful in reading, writing, and math. As a classroom teacher, I realized that my older students struggled with foundational skills taught in early childhood. I went back to school to obtain my certification in special education to meet more needs of my students. What I realized was that early childhood education was scarce for some populations and many of my students did not receive the foundational skills necessary to be successful in the older grades.

After years in the classroom, I redesigned my career to become a certified early childhood educator with skills in literacy and mathematics to bridge the gaps for my students. I have an M.Ed. in Early Childhood Education and Special Education. I am trained in Orton-Gillingham, Wilson Reading System, and Math Advantage. I am not going to stop learning to meet the needs of my students.
