Welcome to My Blog

Hi everyone, my name is Norma, this is my second term at Brandman University.  I have chosen to pursue a B.A. in Liberal Studies.  Upon completing the B.A. in Liberal Studies I plan to obtain my teaching credential in mathematics and follow with a graduate degree within the field of education and bilingualism.  I hope to be able to teach mathematics within the Jurupa Valley Unified School District and eventually settle working as a district administrator.
    I am a stay at home mom, with two wonderful, beautiful daughters.  I have chosen to stay at home with them in order give them the attention and care that my mother gave my siblings and I.  Returning to school has been the most difficult thing I have done during the last decade, and that includes going through labor.  But I have chosen to do so in order to become a better role model for my children.  Although teaching and education was not my first choice when it came to a career, I now that it will bring me great satisfaction and joy, as I will be helping mold young people’s identities and hopefully instill within them the importance of an education.
   Truth be told, this is the first blog or post of any sort I have ever written, as a personal rule I rather not have any type of personal information on line.  With that said, doing this blog has been challenging for me as I don’t want to become engulfed by media.  I also don’t have anything other than a couple of email account, no Facebook, no twitter.  I have chosen to do this in order to teach my children the value of books and learning from something other than the internet, which then makes me a bit of a hypocrite as I am taking online classes. 

Well that was a little about me, thanks for reading my blog and I hope we all have fun in class.  If any of you having any tips or pointers, bring them on, please.
