Now this is a post I never saw coming. As many of you know I have two degrees in Education. In fact I taught here in Michigan and just outside of Chicago along the NorthShore for several years. I have my undergraduate degree in early childhood education with an emphasis in Elementary education. And I have a masters degree as a reading specialist with an emphasis in Special Education. Needless to say, I’ve got a few things up my sleeves when it comes to teaching children.
