Thanks to all of my classmates for a wonderful semester. It was very interesting interacting with you via technology! Good luck to all of you in your future endeavors.
As usual, Dr. Luongo, it was enlightening and pleasurable having you as a professor this semester. I truly have enjoyed all of the classes that I have had with you and I know that you will continue to be one of the most effective teachers on campus!
As for me, I have a huge decision to make. I am officially done with all of my certification classes and now have to student teach. However, since I am unexpectantly due to give birth at the end of July, student teaching in Sept. is out of the question. My dilemma is, "Do I student teach in January when the baby is 5 months old and my other daughters are 6 and 8 OR do I put off student teaching for a year or two??" Only time will tell!
About Me
- Taran
- I have a B.S. in Business Administration from Montclair State, my M.B.A. in Organizational Development from Upper Iowa University's online program and am currently working on my Elementary Teaching Certfication from St. Peter's University. I worked for Prudential Financial as a HR Manager and was downsized 8 years ago. I utilized that time to raise my daughters, Tiana 8 and Keelin 5 and to pursue my M.B.A. and Elementary Teaching Certification. Surprisingly and unexpectantly, we are now expecting our 3rd child in July. I was supposed to student teach in September, but will have to delay it until January of 2010. I have been married to my husband Gene for 12 years and have been with him for almost 20 years. We dated as teenagers and grew up on the same block, so I kind of married the "boy next door"!
