My name is Ms. Nina, and I am a total nut for literacy and language learning -- total nut! In fact, my passion for reading and writing is filled with such genuine enthusiasm that students have often called me a little crazy, but that whacky energy is also exactly what makes my passion for literacy contagious. It works, and it shows not only in my students' language progress and MAP scores, but also, and more importantly, in the lives of the students, who learn to truly love reading and writing. I work hard to make learning fun -- and thus desirable -- because I deeply believe that literacy is the key to lifelong learning in any language.
