I do think your experience as a lawyer is great to carry over to your teaching career. Keep up the good work :)kelciejoinerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01927828367370453591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763086037995231378.post-54652611184547820842008-07-10T17:38:00.000-07:002008-07-10T17:38:00.000-07:00Hi Lorraine!I feel connected to you as for I am a ...Hi Lorraine!<BR/><BR/>I feel connected to you as for I am a fellow New Yorker...I feel like CSUSM is my home and I am glad that you feel included as well. Lawyer turned teacher, that is remarkable! Good luck with your goals and I look forward to learning more about you!Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03876727847118006543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763086037995231378.post-66426928305133305722008-07-09T15:06:00.000-07:002008-07-09T15:06:00.000-07:00Wow!

My mom was born in Brooklyn and lived in Queens until she married my father, so I imagine that your accents are similar (although hers is significantly less since she's been in California much longer than yourself). Your story is quite inspiring. The fact that you went from being a lawyer to teaching is great! I think that with your background you will have great success with high schoolers! Good luck with your future plans!Carissa Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03183399320960866373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7763086037995231378.post-30558959943289149582008-07-09T14:58:00.000-07:002008-07-09T14:58:00.000-07:00You Rock Lorraine...I just had to say. You sound ...You Rock Lorraine...I just had to say. You sound like such a cool person. Although you came kickin' and screamin' how do you like CA? I have never been to NY but it is on my bucket list. :-) Wow a lawyer to a teacher, man I LOVE IT! But I do believe that combination will work great for the high schoolers who give you a hard time ;-). Also, I have worked with special ed students for a while and I am glad you with your kind of personality (a mixture of humor, passion and love) will be very beneficial! <BR/><BR/>Keep Rockin'!sydneycamdenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01698719421680511508noreply@blogger.com
