I was a long-term substitute teacher for two years, with my longest assignments being sixth grade, fifth grade, first grade, and fourth grade. I then became an aide for two kindergarten classes for about a year. I then made a quantum leap and became a Site Director for an afterschool program. So now I teach college students how to tutor elementary school kids.
Without my experience in the trenches as a sub and as an aide, I'd never have the cred to be a site director.
I am a Kindergarten teacher, this will be my third year. I have always loved children and always knew I wanted to be a teacher. I hear what everyone is saying about parents and administrators...sometimes they get in the way of your teaching!!
