Ms. Evan enriches children's lives with real world experiences, models community values, and guides youngsters to think independently. I think of myself as a preschool playfellow, a TK teammate, a kindred kindergartener, a citizen coach, a learning leader, a nature nurturer, a spirit-sourced scholar, and a god-sent guide. I have taught very young children for over 40 years. In addition to a Bachelor's elementary education, I specialized to obtain a Bachelor's in early childhood education. For my Master's work I studied educational computing and technology. I have other trainings beyond teaching in leadership, communication, relationships, and self expression. I've taken a business development course.
EvanKnows best & is uniquely experienced plus highly qualified to teach both parents alongside their children
Most recently, I took a weeklong intensive at a prestigious institute learning: how the brain develops, how to increase intellectual, physical and social abilities, essential information to create an enriched learning environment, and how to play in an educational way. What gives this program it's distinction is drawing on a variety of experiences spanning the infant room to middle schools, inside of both public and private education sectors, knowledge of the service industry versus the corporate arena along with being a part of parent education, cooperative participation preschools, homeschool communities, local volunteering, plus are neighborhood schools.

"We cannot speak highly enough of Evan and her teaching skills. She was always so engaged with him and made each moment a teaching/learning experience. His expressive language was excellent. He knew all of the colors and could count 1 through 10. He had basic manners as she was always practicing social skills like sharing and taking turns, and saying please and thank you with our son. He was our oldest child so being first time parents we learned so much from Evan, as well. Any family would be so lucky to work with her—we can wholeheartedly say our son would not have been as prepared for school and hitting his milestones at the rate that he did if it was not for Evan. Knowing every day that he was safe, loved, and learning gave us peace of mind and any family would be beyond blessed to work with Evan!!"
