That's me- Maria. I'm 27 and live in South Jersey with my husband and new fur-baby, Lacey. This is my 6th year teaching, 5th year teaching ESL, 4th year in my district. I didn't major in education; I got my certification through the alternate route program, which was a great option for me. I have taught French, Basic Skills, and ESL, and I'm currently working on my 2nd master's in administration.

This is us on our recent trip to Maine. We had a great time in Kennebunkport and Freeport. My husband and I met our freshman year of college and have been together ever since.
This is Lacey, giving us her "What do you mean that's not a toy?" look. She's a work in progress!

If You Weren't a Teacher, What Would You Want to Be?
Although I majored in communication studies to be an anchorwoman, I'd probably be best at lawyer-ing or judge-ing. But my dream job is to be the person who names the paint colors. Seriously.

What's Your Favorite Resource in Your TPT Shop?
Whatever the newest is! But I'm really proud of my Diary series- I work so hard on those babies and my students LOVE them- they ask, "When can we read another diary?"
This is an old picture- there are now 10 diaries in the series. |
Something You Might Not Know About Me:
I'm left-handed. I think I speak for all persons of handedness when I say we have a hard time writing on the board. My left pinky is covered in ink by the end of every day.
Hope you enjoyed learning a little about me! Go check out all the other link-ups at Falling into First.
