Hello, my name is Emily Phamornsuwana. I have an elementary education teaching license for my bachelor’s. In 2013, I completed the ESL endorsement at the Illinois Resource Center, for which I received National Louis University credit for those courses. In the spring of 2018, I decided I wanted to give myself more professional options. That summer I started a master’s in Curriculum and Instruction with Personalized Options. My personalized option was technology in education and to combine that with the ESL endorsement. I will be starting my 9th year in a certified teaching position. This will be my 4th year teaching Digital Literacy as a special for K-6, I have also taught Kindergarten, and 1st grade twice, and I have also been a Social Emotional Learning/Health specials teacher for K-5 for two years. Previous to these teaching experiences I was an instructional aide for six years and I have also taught overseas.
My journey through life has been on an educational path and will continue to be. I am constantly finding ways to increase my knowledge and better my teaching practice. On this website, I will share my learning as well as examples of my students’ learning.
