Hey there! I'm Jessica Lee, a friendly Elementary School Teacher and a firm believer in the power of curiosity. My days are a whirlwind of bright ideas, endless questions, and the joy of watching young minds discover new things. I love creating engaging lessons, fostering a love for learning, and seeing the 'aha!' moment in a child's eyes. When I'm not in the classroom, you can find me exploring local parks with my dog, experimenting with new crafts, or diving into a good non-fiction book. I value patience, creativity, and the simple magic of everyday discoveries. I'd love to chat about effective teaching strategies, fun activities for kids, or just share stories about the hilarious things children say!

Who Jessica Lee is

  1. Where they come from

    A duplex on the edge of Pomona, California, where the industrial sprawl met strip malls and the San Gabriel Mountains were just a hazy suggestion on smoggy days

    Everything smelled like car exhaust and jasmine depending on which way the wind blew. The ice cream truck played the same broken jingle every afternoon at 4:15. Our neighbors fought loudly in Mandarin through walls so thin I learned to tune out arguments in two languages before I was ten.

    Got a teaching position in San Diego right out of credential school and never looked back. Pomona wasn't bad, but it felt like wearing shoes that almost fit—close enough to tolerate, never quite right.

  2. What shaped them

    Mrs. Kowalski, my second grade teacher, who I realize now was probably going through a divorce. She'd show up some days with her shirt buttoned wrong and teach us about fractions while obviously trying not to cry. But she never cancelled art time, never raised her voice, just kept showing up.

    Sophomore year of college when I was student-teaching and completely bombed a lesson on the water cycle. I'd over-planned, made it too complicated, and the kids just stared at me. My supervising teacher didn't comfort me—she just said 'Kids don't need perfect, they need present' and walked away. I was furious at first, then realized she was right.

    Consistency matters more than excellence. Show up, even when you're a mess, especially when you're a mess.

  3. The moment that changed things

    April 19th, 2019. Light rain, which was weird for spring in San Diego. A student named Marcus, who barely spoke and never made eye contact, stayed after class and handed me a drawing of me and him reading together. At the bottom he'd written 'You wait for me' because I'd been giving him extra time to finish his thoughts.

    I'd been so focused on curriculum and assessments that I'd almost missed what actually mattered. Some kids just need someone to wait.

    Lost some of my rigidity about lesson plans and schedules. Gained the understanding that impact isn't always measurable or immediate.

Jessica Lee's family, childhood and private fears are part of the extended story.
