My name is Lauren Anderson, and I have been teaching in some form or another for over 20 years! I’ve taught in many environments: public school, charter school, homeschool co-ops, and now a hybrid school. My variety of teaching experiences has shown me what works in large and small groups and both in formal and informal settings. I love helping teachers and hope that the knowledge and resources I share can make your teaching more exciting and effective!
When I first started teaching, I was completely overwhelmed! I had no idea where to start, what to cover, and what not to cover. I felt like I was drowning! Unsatisfied with giving my students “bookwork,” I pushed the textbook to the back-burner and began making my own curriculum. Over several years and through a lot of trial and error, I finally felt like I “found my rhythm” as a teacher. That’s not to say that my lessons were perfect, but they had become useful tools, which helped the students interact with and absorb the information in a meaningful way.
Now I homeschool my three children while I continue to work on curriculum development. I also teach three classes at a local hybrid school. Whether I’m at home or in a classroom, I will always be a teacher at heart. My variety of teaching experiences has shown me what works in large and small groups and both in formal and informal settings. I love helping teachers and hope that the knowledge and resources I share can make your teaching more exciting and effective!
