Hello! My name is Espyn Martin, and this is my first year teaching in Durham Public Schools. This year I am teaching 3rd grade reading, and I love being part of the Tiger family! My favorite part about teaching is being able to share my passion for reading and writing with my students. My goal is to inspire students to discover books they love, to share their optimism with their peers, and to become lifelong readers. When I am not teaching, you can find me at Starbucks ordering the most festive-flavored latte. In my spare time, I also enjoy cooking, reading, and watching the latest on Netflix.
