About

If you're new here, my name is Michelle Emerson and I love helping teachers with all things technology, organization, and productivity!

 

I started teaching in 2014 and have taught multiple grade levels in different districts across Maryland. In addition to teaching full time, I served as my school's e-coach and helped teachers integrate educational technology in their instruction.

I began documenting my life as a teacher on my YouTube channel Pocketful of Primary in 2015. Since then, I've created a community of over 500,000 teachers, aspiring teachers, and more that inspire, motivate, and support one another!
