Future Plans

Despite the well-publicized budgetary issues that are currently handicapping schools in New Jersey at this time, I am fortunate enough to have received a contract to teach next year at my school.  In addition to social studies, decoding and vocabulary classes that I have taught this year, I also have been asked to teach computer/technology classes next year.  I am excited by this change and am looking forward to this new challenge.  At the same time, I will be writing my thesis at Caldwell College and by June, 2012 I will have completed the requirements to receive my Masters in Special Education.  However, this does not signify the end of my own education.  I will continue to take classes at Caldwell College to work towards acquiring my Learning Disabilities Teacher Consultant license.  My overall plan, even after I obtain my LDTC license, is to stay in the classroom for a few more years.  I truly enjoy being a teacher and feel that I have quite a bit more to accomplish inside the classroom.  Once I feel that I am ready to move on to new positions, I certainly will welcome the change and challenges that I will face.
