Teresa Spiz

Reading Specialist

I graduated from York College majoring in Elementary Education and later earned my Masters from City University in English as a Second Language (ESL). I have been teaching at Greenwood Elementary since 1992. Prior to coming to Greenwood, I lived and taught in New York City, though my journey originated in Poland where I spent the first twenty years of my life.

I truly enjoy teaching at Greenwood School because students here are enthusiastic about learning and their families are very supportive. The Greenwood community provides a multicultural setting where I have an opportunity to teach as well as learn from my students about different cultures and traditions in a fun and creative way. When I am not teaching, I enjoy reading, traveling, listening to jazz, baking and going to the movies.
