The object of teaching a child
is to enable him to get along
without his teacher. By Elbert Hubbard
Thank you for visiting my homepage. I'd like to take this opportunity to let you know who I am. I have been teaching for four years. I was a kindergarten teacher for the last three years and have recently taken on the challenge of my district's library media specialist. I have also coached freshmen girls basketball in my district and managed our after school latchkey program.
I did my undergraduate work at Towson University in Maryland and I earned my Associate Media Specialist certification at Montclair State University in New Jersey. I chose to be a teacher because as a teenager I worked with children at camps and pre-schools and found it very rewarding. Working with children is a lot of fun and is a new learning experience everyday. My mission as a teacher is to make children life long learners so that they can continue to grow even when the school bell stops ringing.
When I am not working I love spending time with my family and friends. I have recently gotten engaged and my fiancé and I are planning a 2004 wedding. One of my favorite things to do with my family is eat our traditional Italian Sunday dinners. I love cooking and eating Italian food. I also love to spend time listening to music. I love all types of music from classical to hip-hop to country. Music is something that inspires me to write. I am hoping to one day write a children's book. Thank you for taking the time to get to know me.
