Just a Few WordsFebruary 16, 2009 by Miss Norma | No comments

I have been going through a lot lately so I have not had time to blog. My relationship with my co-teacher has taken a toll on me. So I have had some issues at work and I actually resigned and my last day at work will be Wed, February 18. I hope I land a new job soon. I can’t believe that this actually came to the point of me losing my job. I gave it my all to make it work but when things are not meant to be there are not.

I just can’t believe that sometimes some employers don’t value their employee as much as they should. I gave my school and my profession 200% and went beyond the call of duties and they would not consider supporting me. That is why I had to leave. I decided that you cannot give your job your all because in the long run they will only look at what would benefit them. But this experience has taught me a lot and made me a stronger person.

So from here i will move on to bigger and better things.

  • i love montessori

    • This blog is about me as a Montessori mom, believer and follower. I want to inspire others to believe in what I experience everyday in my classroom, children learning in a peaceful and happy environment. Children learning at their own pace, helping and guiding each other.

      I started this blog because I want to share my views and experiences as a mom and a devoted Montessori teacher. I recently finished the primary certification with American Montessori Society (AMS). I really enjoyed this experience even though at times it seems as if I was never going to finish. It was lot of work and up and downs for me. I am extremely happy I did it
