About The Teacher: Hi! Having been a parent at Villa for 28 years, I have seen what this school has provided in the way of educating students to be independent thinkers and well educated contributors to our world. It has been my privilege to join Villa over 23 years ago as a Montessori teacher of 6 - 9 year olds (1st - 3rd graders).
Being a daughter of a military officer, I was finally glad to plant myself in one location for more than 2 years by graduating from UCLA with a Bachelors Degree in Geography and a minor in Business Administration. I then moved to Arizona where I worked for 10 years in a computer software firm as a Technical Writer of computer accounting software.
Realizing that wasn't my ultimate life goal, I pursued my Masters in Elementary Education at ASU and upon graduating, came to Villa. I then attended CMTE-NY's Montessori training in Phoenix while applying all my education first hand in the classroom. It has been an exciting journey that I have enjoyed and look forward to continuing for many years to come. Mission For The Class: Providing a challenging education based on the Montessori philosophy and on the needs of the child. Helping the children work to their ability, completing quality work and being open to learning new things. Supporting the family in completing work and school projects in a timely manner.
