About Olivia

Hello! I currently work in the insurance industry, but I bring over three years of experience as a third-grade teacher, with a broad background across K-6 education. I've developed strong skills in planning, implementing, and assessing elementary curricula, with particular expertise in primary grades. Beyond my classroom experience, I've worked in tutoring centers and preschools, gaining insights into early childhood education and individualized instruction. Teaching throughout the pandemic, I became adept at identifying and addressing learning gaps, helping students catch up and meet grade-level goals. I hold a degree in Elementary Education from Illinois State University, with an ESL (English as a Second Language) endorsement, allowing me to support students from diverse backgrounds effectively. I'm passionate about fostering growth and am happy to provide my resume or references upon request. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to connecting!
