As an office manager, I enjoy connecting with parents, students, and faculty. You’re the heartbeat of the school.
Can you talk about what you do at Friendship PCS?
I am also the office manager at Friendship Collegiate. I also taught DC history and American government at Friendship Tech Prep.

The support system when I taught history was tremendous. I was especially focused on how to differentiate for learning styles and levels.
Are there any recommendations you have for first-year teachers?
You need to have fire and passion for teaching, if you want to excel. It is hard to be successful if you are not passionate.
My advice for first-year teachers would be to go in with an optimistic mindset. You’re going to run into obstacles. Remember, you are also learning alongside your students every day.
