Meet The Teacher
My name is Joyce Nevers. I have been teaching for 13 years. I taught first grade for 11 years. I was a Reading Specialist for one year. This will be my second year teaching Kindergarten at Esperanza Elementary. I earned my Bachelors and Masters degrees from Northern Arizona University. I completed additional coursework to secure my Early Childhood, English as a Second Language and Reading Endorsements. I have been awarded four grants over the years to purchase materials for Language Arts projects and programs I developed.
I love teaching young children because they grow so much during the year. I love to watch a child discover he/she can do it by him/her self. I love teaching children how to read and I am good at it. My favorite words to hear are, "Teacher, I can read this!!!"
I married a fellow educator and we have two beautiful children. We love spending time with our large extended family and traveling to Flagstaff and San Diego.
