Hello Fellow Authors, 

 

My name is Dr. Marisa Christoffel. I am a graduate of National-Louis University with Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education and Middle School endorsements in language arts and social studies.  In May 2009, I earned a Masters of Reading from Northeastern Illinois University and received a Type 10 Special Teaching Certificate. In May 2012, I earned a second master’s degree in educational leadership from Aurora University and received my Type 75 General Administrative Certificate. In July 2021, I earned a Doctorate in Educational Leadership in Curriculum and Instruction from Aurora University.

 

As a professional educator and leader, I am enthusiastic in providing a positive learning experience which can meet the educational needs of all new authors. My mission has always been to help maximize learning through the improvement of instruction. My 19 years of teaching experience, different school leadership roles, and Doctorate in Curriculum and Instructionhave prepared me for continued success in the field of education. 

 

In addition, I have a nine-year-old son named Rocco, and a daughter, Vivianna, who will be six years old in November.  Recently, our family adopted a puppy who we named Lux. He is an Australian Cattle Dog and White Swiss Shephard mix. In the fall, I will begin an adjunct teaching position at Elmhurst University. I will have the opportunity to work with graduate students who are pursuing their master’s degree in Teacher Leadership. 

 

Feel free to call or email me at any time with questions or suggestions that would benefit your writing needs. I look forward to an exciting and productive Summer Author’sProgram!

 

 

Take care,

 

 

Dr. Marisa Christoffel, Ed.D.
