Littles Love Learning Podcast
Welcome to the Littles Love Learning podcast. If you’re a preschool or kindergarten parent or teacher, this podcast is just for YOU!
My name’s Erin, and I’m a certified teacher with my master’s degree in education and over 15 years experience.
But I actually didn’t know how to effectively teach reading until 6 years AFTER I left the classroom.
Now that I’ve been trained in the Science of Reading, I’m on a mission to share all I’ve learned with YOU so that teaching your little one to read is easy and FUN!
You can do this, and I'm here to help!
