All about Me!!!
Who Am I?
My name is Fredrika Stark, and I am a 33 year old, vibrant, and full of life single mother of one. He began his transition today into high school. I have been teaching for the past eight years, and will begin a new job this month teacher Head Start, 3-5- year olds. Wish me luck!! I love to children but also have a passion for cooking and entertaining friends and family. I would have gone to culinary school if I did not take the path to education. It's not too late though right?
I reside in the windy city of Chicago, where I received my B.A. from Chicago State University. When I began missing school, I began my journey to Ashford University for my first M.A. in early childhood education. This degree program is my second M.A. here at Ashford, and I really have enjoyed all the new tools and online programs that I have learned thus far.
Biggest challenge
Ready to blossom
She makes me, me!
They make it worth it!!
I do what I do, and I love it. To see the smiles on my kids faces makes all the education, late nights, and learning new skills worth it. I couldn't imagine doing anything else that didn't involve children in some way. (except cooking)
The MATLT program at Ashford has taught me many new and exciting ways of learning. Though these are not ideal for young children, but students my son's age would be able to access these tools and programs. I have even shown my son a few that I have learned such as blogs, wikis, and how Facebook can be used for a learning tool and socializing.
