My name is Lisa Rees. Along with being Program Co-ordinator, overseeing the Naturally Inspired and Learn and Play the Montessori Way, I teach Math Pre-Abacus, Math Abacus and Reading/Writing classes to the school age children! I have a Bachelor of Education (Primary) degree and a Level 3 Early Childhood Education certification. I have completed my Applied Behavioral Analysis therapy training. I’ve also received extensive training in Montessori Education for children ages 2-6 and am a Certified Montessori Teacher in ages 3 – 6. Before I came to Early Achievers in 2008, I worked in a daycare setting in the 4/5 year old room and with the after school children. While I enjoyed my time at the daycare, I wanted an opportunity to teach in a setting conducive to learning while still having fun. I thoroughly enjoy all the classes I teach and seeing the pride on the children’s faces when they learn something new is one of my greatest joys. I have a wonderful husband and teenage son. When not teaching, you can find me out and about with my husband and son or reading and researching new, fun things to do with my students.
