All About Miss Anderson
Home
I was born and raised in Riverside, California and attended college at
UCLA where I got my B.A. in American Literature and Education.  I
went to Cal State San Bernardino to get my teacher credential and
recently I finished my Masters Degree at Chapman University.  I love
teaching 6th grade at Corona Ranch.  I love my job, and I am very
happy to be at this wonderful and distinguished school!

In my spare time I like to read, workout, cook, swim, scrapbook, go to
the movies, and spend time with my friends.  I also like to spend time
with family. Additionally, I enjoy going to the beach and traveling.  I
love going to New York and San Francisco. I recently got to go to
Hawaii for the first time and it was AMAZING! I have also traveled to
other parts of the United States and spent a summer in England while I
was in college. Someday I would like to visit Greece, France, Italy,
and Spain.

If I am to teach my students anything, it is to become independent,
responsible and respectful people who believe in themselves, who have
the courage and the desire to aim high in life, and who will stop at
nothing to succeed.
