Linda's Story
Life
Well, first off I can't believe I ended up here in MA for so long! I came out here about 12 years ago now to work as a nanny for a child with a visually impairement. She opened my eyes as to where my life really should head.
After a couple of mishaps and bad decisions, I finally got back on track and worked at the New England Center for Children for 4 years. I have ended my 3 year stay in in the Taunton Public School system teaching 5-8th grade children with Severe Special Needs. Now, I am working with students 2-4th grade in the Attleboro Public School system. I obtained my Master's degree from Simmons college in May 2004 and my Ed.S in Assitive Special Education Technology in May 2005.

her best four-legged friend Brady. For those of you that knew me "back in the day" with my dog, Nanucke, Brady looks just like her, only bigger!
Brady is a Husky/Wolf (supposedly). (Yes, after Tom Brady of the Patriots. Wasn't my choice. I rescued him from a family that had no other options.)

Workplace
I am now working in a public school where the environment is calm, relaxing and great hours! Lots of satisfaction knowing I'm doing something that is benefitting someone else. I currently teach 5 students, grades 2nd thru 4th. The principal and staff are so nice and welcoming. I felt like I walked into "home" when I changed to this job. I LOVE teaching in an elementary school setting! Can't say anything negative about where I am right now.
