Experience
I love working with children and I have worked with children as the neighborhood nanny and barn camp counselor since I was young. I currently love my job and am teaching at an Elementary School in Framingham as their Special Educator for the 4th grade. Our school uses grade level inclusion for special education, so I teach the 4th-grade curriculum (reading, writing, math) with all the 4th-grade teachers. I have experience teaching 2nd grade during my student teaching and have worked with students from grades 1-5 as a school "Fellow." I am a licensed teacher for Elementary Education grades 1-6 and licensed for Mild-Moderate Disabilities Prek-8. I also have my Sheltered English Immersion License for teaching students who are learning English. Competed all 4 years on Stonehill's NCAA Division 2 Equestrian team and went to Nationals where I placed 3rd. Winner of the team's Spirit Award.

Hobbies
Hi! My name is Tina and I am 25 years old and a teacher in Framingham! I have a big family and am the oldest for 4 girls! I love working with kids and during my summers, I work at my barn as a camp counselor/instructor and nanny for a wonderful family with 3 children. I have been nannying for this family since I was 16! At Stonehill College I worked in their health services and competed on their NCAA Equestrian Team. I have been riding horses since I was 7 and enjoy sharing my love for animals with the children I work with! Many have come to my barn to visit the horses, dogs, kittens, and donkey! I still ride and compete today. In high school, I ran track and played soccer. Music is also a passion of mine. I have played the piano since I was young. I was also in the marching band, jazz band, orchestra, and concert band, and continued playing the French horn into college. Thanks for taking the time to get to know me :)
