I am a native of the beautiful Caribbean Island of Jamaica. I have been teaching for over twenty-four years, nineteen of which was done in my native country Jamaica and the remainder here in the USA. I am married and is the mother of two awesome boys. I am one who really enjoys spending quality time with my family. I enjoy teaching as I see it as a means of preparing young minds for the future. The two philosophies that I use as my daily guide to keep me motivated are ........Be the reason someone smiles - Roy T. Bennett and You really never know how strong you are until being strong is your only choice - Robert Nesta Marley.
