My name is Tamra Lee, I have my kids call me "Miss Tammy." I got my Bachelor's degree from the University of Utah in Special Education with an emphasis in Mild/Moderate disabilities. I got my Master's degree from the University of Utah in Special Education with an emphasis in Severe disabilities.
I have a lot of experience working with children with disabilities. As you can see in the picture to the left, I have a little sister with Down Syndrome. She graduated Taylorsville High School last year and is enjoying going to Post high now. She is also part of the reason that I decided to become a special education teacher. I watched my mom fight the school system to actually teach her and prove to them that she could learn. I wanted to become a teacher and teach my students and their families that they can learn just like any other kid, they just need a little extra support and help. I teach for my students and their families and will always be their/your advocates. This is my third year of teaching and I student taught for a year before that, was a para-educator a year before that and volunteered in special education classes for for about 3 years before that. |
