Beth Costanzo's passion for teaching began at the age of eight, when she transformed her parents' garage into a classroom of her own. When the neighborhood school replaced its desks, Beth eagerly rescued the old ones, arranging them neatly for her "students." At the end of each school day, she collected extra worksheets, already envisioning lessons yet to be taught. Even then, her mother knew Beth was destined to become a teacher.That early love for learning grew into a lifelong career dedicated to educating young children. Beth earned a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education, followed by a Master's degree in School Administration. She further specialized in literacy instruction by obtaining a Reading Certificate from the Wilson Reading System, reinforcing her expertise in evidence-based reading instruction.With decades of classroom experience, Beth is known for her deep understanding of early childhood development and her ability to make learning engaging, meaningful, and joyful. Her work reflects a belief that strong foundations in literacy and learning begin early-and when nurtured with care, creativity, and intention, they last a lifetime.
