Hello, my name is Irina Gunkina. I graduated with Master’s Degree in Education from Volgograd State Pedagogical University back in Russia. Later I moved to China to continue my education at Tianjin Foreign Studies University. After completing my degree I was working as a primary school ESL teacher for a local school, and then as a preschool teacher at Tianjin Golden Star International Kindergarten and a Nursery Teacher at Tianjin Rego International School. Then my family moved to United States and I studied early childhood education in Santa Monica Montessori School. I have more than 10 years of teaching experience as a primary school teacher, preschool and nursery teacher. I am thoroughly enjoying working with young children, as they bring me much joy. I am also a mother of 3 daughters.
