Instructor Bio:

Hi, my name is Marla. Building rapport and a connection are important to me. One of the first things I do with my students is to get to know them. I have been an educator for over 14 years, and I have found connecting to the student helps build a foundation to learn. I create engaging and differentiated lessons, am upbeat and animated during lessons to keep student engagement at a high level.

Owen says:

Ms. Marla is very focused and professional. She engages well with students. She is thorough with content and preparation. Each student is engaged, happy, and active in her classes because of Ms. Marla and the way she teaches her lessons. My daughter had lots of fun with a variety of learning tools -- videos, sight words, writing, sounds, etc. I think she found them both fun and fulfilling.

Lewis says:

Significant progress with Marla! The class is very well structured, interactive, and targeted.

Shantell says:

Marla kept everyone involved by encouraging them to share their thoughts and ideas and stories. She was enthusiastic and well organized. She had different methods of learning from videos to songs and books and their own story creating. My son could not wait each day for it to start.

Kim says:

4- Stars for the class, but 5- Stars for the Instructor! I think this class was too advanced for my 5-year-old Pre-K student since she doesn\'t even know how to read 3 letter words. However, she enjoyed the class and I would sign up again because she still got a lot of practice writing and participating in a class.

Akhila says:

5- stars! Good Class and instructor.
