Introduction


My name is Temeka Thatch. I was born and raised in Greensboro, NC. I am currently a Pre-K teacher in Greensboro, NC. This is my first year back in Pre-K. Prior to this I taught kindergarten for five years. All of my experience has been in Title 1 schools, which serve those considered to be low class. I chose early childhood because I believe it is vital to have a strong educational foundation. I have known for a while that teaching is my life's calling. I've been working with children ranging from birth-kindergarten since the age of thirteen. At the age of thirteen, I also knew that I would one day go on to graduate from college with a bachelors', but I also knew I couldn't stop there. It is my desire to pursue an advanced degree because I am committed to lifelong learning, and I want to advance in my career. I am currently working towards a Doctorate in Early Childhood. I wish to one day teach at the colligate level, equipping future educators for the classroom.
