Summary
I am a mother of 3 vastly different aged children and many pets, entering the workforce. I hold a Bachelor's in Psychology from Thomas Edison State University (obtaining The Arthur Fletcher Award for outstanding grades). I am in the throws of gaining my CE for licensure in P3 teaching and have been accepted to Monmouth University for my Masters in Early Childhood Education. I believe my experience with my own children as well as my education in Psychology gives me a leg up on knowing how to deal with various scenarios your kiddos might throw at me. I've always told my own children that while I'm here to guide them and teach them they'll never realize how much I truly have gained and learned from them. Humility, love, patience, innocence, and viewing the world through their eyes doesn't even skim the surface. Kids really do teach us unconsciously and I'm here for it I cannot wait to begin my teaching story.
