Greetings parents and families and welcome to a brand new school year 2018-2019.  I would like to share a synopsis of who I am.  This year, it is my 17th year working at Montessori School 31. I have taught at different grade levels, however I am very pleased and delighted to teach in a Pre-K and Kindergarten Class (Pre-Primary Grade Level) for three consecutive years.  I hold a Bachelorette Degree in Elementary and Special Education and a Masters Degree in TESOL (Teaching English as Second Language) from Mercy College at Dobbs Ferry, NY.  I also hold a Teaching Certification for grades Pre-K through 6 from the State of New York and have completed a Montessori Training for ages 3-6 and 6 through 9 from CMTE, New York.  Please feel free to contact me at mavila@yonkerspublicschools.org.
