A Little Bit About Me

I am back in school, for the first time in many years, working on a secondary education/ science degree. On the days I don't have class, I substitute teach at the schools in my area. I live in Daphne, Al and commute to Mobile for most of my classes.

I chose to go back to school for education for a few reasons. One reason is because I will enjoy having the same schedule as my children. Being a teacher will give me the opputunity to have a career and still have great quality time with my kids. The other reason is because I feel education is so important. I would like to contribute to the foundation of our future, which is our children.

My biggest job though, is taking care of my two kids. I have a freshman in high school and one in second grade. They are both active in sports and the oldest one seems to have a very demanding social life. They both tend to keep me quite busy.

When I'm not in school or substitute teaching or running kids around, you can probably find me on the tennis courts. Tennis would certainly be my favorite past time. I play on a couple of league teams and a lot of the time just for fun. A few other things I enjoy are boating and just hanging out on the beach.

I believe you have to be brave in order to be a substitute teacher.
