I worked at the YMCA as a preschool teacher for five years. I was a substitute teacher in the Rock Island and East Moline school districts. I took a long term substitute position in Rock Island last year.
Hobbies:
I like to play soccer and to dance. I also love to read and love to go boating with my family.
Favorite Thing About Jordan:
My favorite thing about Jordan is that the staff is so helpful. They go out of their way to make
sure you understand something. I also love how much the parents get involved. They really care about their children’s education.
What is special about what I do? I am so lucky to be able to help children everyday. I am able to help them grow academically but also as a person. Sixth grade is such a transitional time and I always wanted to be the kind of teacher that is there for their students. I think being there for the students is just as important as teaching them.
What is special about Jordan? Jordan is not only a school it’s like a community or family. We all come together for the same purpose. We are here for the students academically, but also we are here to spread God’s word. We are able to share our faith with one another and that is why our school is so unique.
What am I most looking forward to this school year? I am looking forward to meeting new students and helping them grow. I hope to learn from them as well.
