Hello! I’m Adrienne Moody

Welcome to my ENGL 470 E-Portfolio

Professional Profile

I graduated from Longwood University with a major in liberal studies and a minor in Earth science, with a specialization in early childhood education. I have gained practical experience working in two early childhood development centers/schools, catering to children aged between 9 months to 6 years. These centers employed distinct educational philosophies, including Reggio Emilia and Montessori approaches. I absolutely love working in early childhood development and I cannot wait to start my career as a lead Montessori teacher.

Introduction
