Special Education Teacher: Grad School Edition
Donation protected
Hello! My name is Lizzette Lewis and I am a Special Education Teacher Grades 7-12 for the New York City Department of Education. I am currently enrolled in Touro College to complete my master's degree in Special Education. I have been working as a teacher for about 3.5 years now. I have been working with kids since 2004 and I love every moment enriching the lives of children!
I do not qualify for a student loan and already have outstanding student loans that I hope to take care of after receiving this degree. Before the pandemic, I wasn't about to complete my degree due to getting a divorce and moving on my own. I am a mother/teacher during this pandemic with also helping my son who is on the Autism spectrum. Normally I would be working my full time job plus some others but because of the pandemic, I am unable to have extra income at this time. With the completion of this degree, I can get my COVID certification and continue doing what I love which is teaching children with learning disabilities.
I am asking for anything that help me with tuition during this time. Since we are mostly home I have to make sure I keep the lights, internet and food coming in. I truly appreciate anything and all donations will go to my tuition and books. I am trying to earn the funds by February 1st 2021.
Thank You and of course I will be happy to answer any questions or concerns. Thank You.
