Welcome to my brand new blog!

Since this my first post I’d like to take a few minutes to introduce myself:

My name is Alicia and I’m currently back in college for my Master’s Degree in Special Education.  I am also working full time as a teacher’s aide in a Learning Support Classroom. Sometimes I feel like I’m doing more teaching than the regular teacher but I’m gaining so much experience. Last year I worked in an Autistic Support Classroom as an aide and that experience is what led me back to Grad School. I would love to specialize in Autism. 
I completed my Undergrad at The University of Pittsburgh @ Johnstown with a BS in Elementary Education. I graudated there in 2007 and have been back ever since then. I’m an only child, love my golden retriever and my family and friends are extremely important to me.
I love the Pittsburgh Steelers and Pittsburgh Penguins, cold snowy winters, wearing flip-flops, Halloween, and text messaging

I look forward to connecting with new teachers on here and to learn new ideas and helpful tips.

Take Care – Alicia
