In my early 20’s I floundered through different jobs trying to find one that sparked joy. The people I met were wonderful, but there was something missing. I decided to try the education field, which led me in a very roundabout way to working in schools, and finally becoming a teacher. Why didn’t I do this years ago??
I received a Masters of Science in Education from Bank Street College in NYC. I taught 1st grade for several years at The Family Academy in Harlem. When I met my husband, I moved to Boston and taught 3rd and 1st grade at The Benjamin Banneker School in Cambridge, MA.
Our daughter was born in 2002 and our son in 2005. Our home is full of books. We are always reading, always visiting the library and frequenting local bookstores.
For the past several years I have been working part time in local schools as well as private tutoring. Always, I include a read aloud at the end of every class.
Happy Reading!
