One of the reasons I became a teacher is so that I can make a positive impact in the lives of the students I serve. I plan to commit myself to ongoing professional and personal development so that I can provide quality instruction to each and every one one of the students I have the privilage of serving. I plan to get to know and treat each of my students as an individual and to provide a nurturing, safe and rigorous learning environment, where each student can thrive and reach their maximum potential.
About Me:
I am a graduate of California State University, Northridge, where
I earned my bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts with a concentration in
English as a Second Language. I also earned a degree in
Administration of Justice in 1996, but have since decided that my true
passion lies in teaching.
I have worked for LA Unified as a regular classroom assistant and special education assistant. I am a very lucky woman. I have been fortunate enough to have been part of a wonderful team of supportive staff and administrators for the last two years at Cantara Elementary in Reseda, where I have taught second and fifth grade, respectively. Next school year, I will be teaching first grade so that I will be allowed to do my second semester student teaching in my own classroom. I am currently working on my prelimary credential at CSUN and hope to be done in the fall semester.
