Hi! My name is Nicole Smith and I have been teaching for over 12 years in elementary school. I've taught kindergarten through 3rd grade in public and private schools. I love to watch children learn new things and it's an honor to guide them through new skills. Third grade is my favorite grade to teach! Here is some information about my family: My husband, Matt, and I are originally from California. We have lived in Utah for 16 years. We are both elementary school teachers. We have 3 children ages: 10, 16, & 18; who love to learn, play sports, and hang out with family and friends. Our children have taught us many things about how children learn and grow. It is a privilege to be a parent and a teacher. I look forward to getting to know our third graders and SLA school family.
