Hello, My name is Ms.Gavilanez 

 Welcome to O.E.C.C !!

It's sure is a pleasure to be your child's teacher, and I cannot be any happier to provide my skills to this community. This community has always made me feel welcome and at home and since as a child  I grew up in Orange, I have witnessed the benefit and the positive impacts that the preschool program promotes and how it can set a positive strong foundation to your child's early and upcoming school years.

Over the pass 6 Year I've worked in Orange and Newark and throughout those years I have enjoyed learning strategies and new teaching technique that will help my students prepare them for the next upcoming school year, either for Kindergarten or their 2nd year of Preschool. Im very passionate on what I do, I love teaching and seeing my students succeed and as a  teacher seeing that progress it's a joyful feeling.  I love to promote reading to my students and help them build interest in stories to expand their critical thinking, language, and vocabulary skills.  I personally enjoy reading and always learning new things, therefore, I like to set high expectations for my self and my student so they can also build a love and interest in literacy, math,  social-emotional and every area that will help them become successful.

 Since  I enjoy learning new things besides having my Bachelor degree in Early childhood education from Bloomfield College,  I'm currently attending Kean University to obtain my  Masters in Special education. Im a bilingual teacher which Im glad to be able to provided my communication skills to a community with a high percentage spanish/Creole speaking members.    

I hope that you were able to get to know a little bit about me and I  hope to get to know you and your child, as well as the months, go by so that  without a doubt we can become a great Team for your child succeed in school
