Summer Semester Class

I already have NJ teaching certifications in Accounting, General Business, and Typewriting, but I wanted to earn another teaching certification in Mathematics. The additional certification will help improve my educational marketability. In April, I began the process of enrolling at William Paterson University in Wayne, NJ.

By the end of May, I had registered for a Precalculus class. Since I had taken two Algebra classes and a Precalculus at Thomas Edison State College, I was able to clear the prerequisite requirements for continuing my math classes at WPU.

I completed the class at the end of June and I’m satisfied with my (good) grade.

New Classes for January

I enrolled in two sewing classes at the Paramus (NJ) Jo-Ann fabric and craft store. My objective is to learn how to use a sewing machine so that I could do simple household repairs and create simple Halloween costumes.

After taking these classes, I have since purchased a Brother electric sewing machine from an online auction, cleaned it up, oiled it, and replaced the missing bobbin case. I used it to mend some clothes, make some curtains, and make a panda Halloween costume.
