The purpose of this portfolio is to introduce myself and to share information about my teaching experience, my professional goals, and some of my teaching ideas.I am currently a graduate student at Texas A&M University - San Antonio pursuing a masters degree in Reading. I have not worked as a professional teacher yet, but have been busy volunteering with children in a variety of capacities for the past 21 years. My five kids are my inspiration and my love of children and books have motivated me to someday be an Elementary School Reading Specialist.
Through the course of taking graduate classes, I have also discovered a keen interest in working with ESL children, so I plan to earn my ESL certificate as well.
