My Biography I graduated from North Central College in 2003 with a BA in English. I received my MA in Curriculum and Instruction through Concordia University in 2007. This is my sixth year teaching English and I do enjoy working with students because of my love and dedication to education. I am a true believer in Life Long Learning. I grew up in an environment that valued education; and I try to instill that in my students. I strongly believe that positive communication between home and school can combine to promote success. Please feel free to email me about your child's success in my class. Some additional facts about me: I am fluent in Polish; this is largely due to the fact that I was born and raised in Poland. I enjoy reading and writing. I believe every child can succeed as long as he or she is determined to work hard.
