"Passionate instructor. Very well prepared. Confident, knowledgeable, and kept the students fully engaged. Also on an individual level, she paced accordingly to needs and corrected behaviors using various strategies."

-Parent, Talbot Hill Elementary

"You already have such a strong command of leading a lesson. Your pace is just right – the energy is engaging and you are able to focus on the topic and content while, admirably, able to focus on what is also going on with your students – pulling them back into focus if needed."

"Allie and I have co-taught together in a residential environmental education setting. Allie is a reflective educator who prioritizes relationships with her students. She is prepared and organized in her delivery while being flexible to accommodate for the needs of her students. Her enthusiasm for teaching and the content she teaches is contagious. Working with her is great - she has always been responsive to my plans and works collaboratively to ensure the best outcomes for our students. She is constantly working to improve her practice, and I appreciate how she pushes me to improve my teaching practice as well!"
