Hello, my name is Mrs. Ackerman and I am looking forward to a wonderful and exciting new year. I have been teaching since 1999 and I have had many opportunities to work with hundreds of students and their unique talents. I have obtained my Bachelors degree in Education at SUNY Geneseo and my masters in special education at SUNY New Paltz.
I have a young son and he is the joy of my life. I am also a great animal lover and I enjoy singing and I sing throughout the day as I teach. I believe in creating a positive classroom atmosphere and highlighting students strengths to help build their self esteem. I firmly believe that if children are feeling good about themselves and their abilities they will perform to their true potential.
