Natalie's Story

Life (updated 2009) I got married my sophmore year in college, had a wonderful son in 1990 when I was junior in college, and divorced soon after graduating from Hood College. I met the love of my life in 1996, and remarried in 1997. My husband legally adopted our son, and we have been blessed with a daughter, who joined our family in 2003. We currently have a miniature toy poodle (we rescued) named Fluffy. And we have our bonus baby boy on the way, and he is due on March 9, 2009. We have lived in Kensington, MD for the past 12 years and love our diverse neighborhood! We are very active in our church community and spend alot of time as a family and with our friends. We are looking forward to our son's senior year of high school, and I'm gearing myself up to prepare for that fact he'll be going off to college next year. He's so busy now that we don't see him often (Eagle Scout, Church youth group leader, Lacrosse team, swim/dive team, school plays, etc.) but at the end of the day he's always home. That may not be the case soon.... 2009 update: Our son graduated in May 2008 with honors, and is in his second semester at BYU in Utah and loving it. I miss him terribly but he's having a good time. At least our daughter will be around to keep us busy. She loves her Montessori preschool, gymnastics and tap/ballet classes. She entertains our family with her imaginative stories, ideas, and performances..... 2009 update: She is supposed to be in preschool for another year but tested into Kindergarten early. She won a lottery slot for a Spanish Immersion program, and is currently attending an...Expand for more
all day Spanish language kindergarten class. She misses her big brother terribly, but is excited about the upcoming birth of her little brother. College I graduated from Hood College in 1993 with a B.A. in Special Education, and got several job offers. I decided to work for Montgomery County and have been very happy with my decision. I got my Masters in ESL (English as a Second Language) from Trinity College in 2001, and another Masters EQ in 2003 from various grad. classes in different schools & inservice classes. Workplace I'm beginning my 15th year at the same school in Gaithersburg. I started my first 8 years as a special education teacher. For the last 8 years, I've been the ESOL Team leader at my school, which currently has 6 ESOL teachers & 215 students currently receiving ESOL services. In 2006, I was nominated by my previous principal, staff and parents to be the Montgomery County ESOL Teacher of the Year, and much to my surprise, I was selected! I was shocked because our county has more than 300 ESOL teachers, and I never thought I would be given such an honor. I am excited about this school year because two grants I wrote were funded (one has been ongoing for many years) and I am hoping to see some of my students get some extra support that may help them increase their language acquisition at a faster rate. I've been lucky to have a job that has allowed me to work part time since the birth of our daughter, so that I can devote more time to our children. It's helped me live the best of both worlds, only having to work about half time (once you factor in the summers and holidays).
