Meet Thelma, Your Online Coach
Hello friends! My name is Thelma and I am the online coach for the Early Childhood Education Virtual Community. I am excited to learn alongside you. While I am passionate about early childhood education, I also enjoy supporting teachers as they grow in their practice.
I was a 2011 Metro Atlanta Corps Member and taught pre-Kindergarten for two years and one year of Kindergarten before working as a literacy coach and facilitator with the Atlanta Speech School's Rollins Center for Language and Literacy. Prior to joining the Corps, I worked in international development in East Africa and education policy in Washington, DC. In addition to being your online coach, I'm currently working as a consultant for the District of Columbia's Office of the State Superintendent of Education.
