My name is Stephanie Smith and I recently finished student teaching in a 2nd grade class at Galindo Elementary School in Austin Independent School District. I am being certified EC-6 in English, Language Arts, and Reading.

“I have a passion for teaching kids to become readers, to become comfortable with a book, not daunted. Books shouldn’t be daunting; they should be funny, exciting, and wonderful, and learning to be a reader gives a terrific advantage.” -Roald Dahl
