Meet the Team

Rebecca Bernard

I have enjoyed serving in the field of education for 38 years. I began in the classroom and now I have returned! Nothing compares to the excitement I feel when I am afforded the opportunity to help your child learn to read. Added to that excitement is a tremendous team of educators that share those same feelings. Thank you for allowing me to begin this journey with your child and thank you for traveling this road with us!

  This is my 10th year teaching at Clever.  I love sharing the joy of reading with students and am looking forward to working with you and your child as we begin another great school year.  I feel honored to watch your children learn to read and grow in their literacy skills and am grateful to be a part of the team helping them in that process.
