I am excited to be your child’s third grade teacher. I’m sending you this letter so you can know a little more about me. I will be asking your student to write me a letter about them (and you).
This is my second year teaching third grade. I have worked in various vocations for quite some time, before I returned to college. So, I am a late in life college graduate with a lot of real world experience. I graduated from OSU in 2010 with a Bachelor’s of Science in Human Development and Family Sciences. I am currently student in the Master’s Education Administration program at OU-Tulsa.
I have been on the other side of the teacher’s desk as a working parent because my daughter is 13 years old. I am thankful to my husband and daughter who helped me live my dream to be a classroom teacher! I can’t tell you how many nights, they have helped me cut out or make flash cards for my students.
I am passionate about education. I believe education can transform lives, it certainly has changed mine! I believe your student has a right to learn and achieve in school. I will help them set goals and exceed them!
