Allison Leotta

Allison graduated from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte with a bachelor’s degree in psychology and applied anthropology. She started her early childhood education career at the Goddard school as a toddler and pre-k teacher in 2019. From that experience she discovered her passion for early childhood education. She loves reading about new research in the field to help her and her students grow. She is excited to continue with Charlotte Montessori School for her third year and learn even more about the Montessori philosophy.

Her favorite children’s author is Susan Verde because of the way she simply and effectively writes about complex emotions that captivates young children. In her free time she loves to play guitar and sing, make her own jewelry, go on bike rides, and spend time in nature.
