TEACHING EXPERIENCE

Nikki has taught K-12 English Learners both in the U.S. and internationally for over 10 years and loves it! She has also been a leader in curriculum design and professional development for teachers in large urban school districts.

MY TEACHING STYLE

Our style is laser-focused, differentiated instruction with an emphasis on interactive learning and academic language production. Our theory is that those who do the talking, do the learning, therefore it should be the voices of our students that we hear most often.
