Hi, my name is Gena Louise and I am the Pre-Kindergarten teacher at Holy Trinity. This is my second year as a preschool teacher at Holy Trinity and I love every minute of it! I absolutely love teaching preschool age children because there is never a dull moment! I believe that education is the key to success! My main goal in being an educator is to create a safe and effective learning environment while also teaching children material they will use the rest of their lives. Children are a passion of mine and an unknown author once said, "While we try to teach our children all about life, our children teach us what life is all about."
I am a proud graduate of Eastern Illinois University and was in the Alpha Gamma Delta sorority. My bachelor's degree is in Early Childhood Education with a concentration in Child and Family Studies. I plan to get my masters in English as a Second Language (ESL) in the near future. I graduated from Hinsdale South High School and live near Westmont, Illinois.
