My name is Mariagorretti E.O. Okoro. Well, about myself, I am a native of Nigeria and now a citizen of the U.S. I reside in the Bronx. Currently, I am working with the Department of Education, as a Teacher Assistant. Working with children is such an inspiration to me. It involves having patience and loving what you are doing. It is all about willingness and strength. As a Teacher's Assistant, I love to focus on the development of every child's need, in order to help the students break the ice or succeed so they can accomplish their goals. I believe in being positive and having peace of mind. I've obtained my Associate's degree in accounting from Monroe College. A Bachelor of Science from Iona College and a Master's degree from Mercy College on Organizational Leadership. I can say that my writing ability is a gift from God almighty. As well as the inspiration from working with children and others. etc...
