Mrs. Madelyn Howard

Hi! I am the new 4^th Grade teacher here at Holy Family. I love teaching and learning from those around me. Aside from teaching, some of my hobbies and interests include spending time with my family and friends, rowing, volunteering, and traveling as much as possible. I look forward to working with your families and am so excited for what the school year has to bring.

Professional Experience:

• Immaculata University, MA
• Reading Specialist Certification
• Instructional II Certification
• The University of Michican, BA
• Taught 7 years at St. Francis of Assisi, Norristown

Educational Philosophy:
 
I believe that each child is capable of great things in their own way, for not all learn the same. I am passionate about my students in wanting them to succeed in every way possible. I make it my priority to develop positive and trusting relationships with all of them, as well as making them feel respected and valued. I want to create an environment that they feel comfortable in making mistakes and are willing to work through them. It is my job to guide and allow them to become independent, stay humble, and make good choices!
