  Jennifer Selin About Jennifer SelinI am the Education Specialist in the kindergarten and 1st/2nd grade classrooms. I am thrilled to be a part of the TLC community and excited to have the opportunity to help build a school where every student is valued for their unique strengths and abilities. I have two teaching credentials from California State University Northridge, one in English Language Arts and another in Special Education. I went to work for CHIME Elementary in Woodland Hills, and then to WISH Charter School in West Los Angeles. When I'm not reading with students, playing with play-doh, or singing and dancing about phonics, I enjoy sailing and visiting daughters who are away in college. | Special Ed Teacher K &1st/2nd | |

In 2011, I pursued my second Masters in Education and my administrative credential. I moved back home to Orange with my family after 12 years in L.A..
