I taught kindergarten, second and fifth grade as a full-time , permanent teacher in Southern California for 15 years. I hold a current California Credential through the CaliforniaDepartment of Education . My credential is in good standing, and is listed as follows: Clear Multiple Subject Teaching Credential Authorized subjects: • Crosscultural, Language & Academic Development Emphasis, General Subjects (Examination) • Supplementary/Subject Matter Authorized Subjects: English California credentials are issued through the Commission for Teacher Credentialing. You may verify its issuance through its web site. I have a Bachelor's degree in English Literature from U.C.L.A. I have two grown sons, Matthew , 23 and Alexander, 20. Matthew is beginning his 2nd year of law school and Alex is starting his third year undergraduate education. Before teaching and through college, I worked as a sitter for several families. In fact, my first job was when I was 11 years old. I worked Read more as an after school tutor , intramural coach and student government advisor for my teaching extra -duty assignments . I visited Anchorage this summer with Matt and Alex and fell in love with the city and culture. I told my kids that I hope to live there someday. I have been told by many that I have a gift when it comes to working with and inspiring children of all ages. I love learning, reading, art, and family . I am a firm believer in routine , fresh air and am a good listener. Last, I welcome a change of climate and would very much like to make a move to Alaska. I can be ready to relocate in less than a week as I have made arrangements and my mother and grandmother are assisting with the details.
