About Yvonne Wong
I am a National Board Certified Teacher in Literacy and hold a dual license in K-8 Education and Early Childhood Education with endorsements in ESL (TESOL), Language Arts, and Gifted/Talented. I have essentially taught all grade levels from K-8, mostly in full inclusion and multi-level classrooms. I taught eight years in elementary and one year in middle school grades in brick-and-mortar classrooms. I currently teach 8th-grade Language Arts in a virtual school, but I have taught middle school in 7th and 8th-grade virtual classrooms for four years. Teaching in a virtual environment has motivated me to learn how to integrate technology into my classroom so that students are engaged, empowered learners that are prepared with 21st Century skills. Not only do I enjoy teaching students, but I enjoy teaching educators as well. I am a lifelong learner and look forward to supporting others in their journey to incorporate technology into their classroom.
