All+About+Me+(Vanessa+Rivas)

==My name is Vanessa Rivas and I am 23 years old. I was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. I graduated Northeastern Illinois University on December 19, 2009, with a bachelor’s in Early Childhood Education. I’m currently a full-time graduate student in the MSI Bilingual/Bicultural Program.== ==I enjoy being around young children and helping them develop into productive and life-long learners. Also, I have worked in several wonderful educational settings such as, blended kindergarten for two years at a Chicago Public School in Roscoe Village and a year and a half with two and three years olds at an Early Head Start site in Evanston.==

==On my free time, I enjoy working out, spending time with my loved ones, walking my puppy, shopping, or watching a good movie. I also tend to spend some time exploring and playing around with my MacBook. Lastly, I’m really looking forward to learning more about Apple products such as, an iPod and Mac Notebook, along with the various programs offered on Macs during this semester.==
