All about me!
I'm 25 years old and am currently a 2nd grade Para Educator for summer school at Urbana City Schools. I also just finished a year as a Special Education Para Educator for 5th and 6th graders at Urbana Local Intermediate.
I graduated from Urbana University in December 2011 with a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education (PreK-3) and a Bachelor's degree in Intervention Specialist: Mild/Moderate (K-12). I also have a Reading Endorsement (K-12). My goal is to be a great Intervention Specialist at a wonderful public school.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, comments, suggestions, or job offers! (:
