Staff Testimonials>>Maureen O'Connor

October 2004.


My name is Maureen O'Connor and this is my third year teaching in Monterrey. I teach first grade and I have been in Monterrey for about a two years. The rich experiences and relationships I've developed make it seem longer. From the minute you cross the border into Mexico to the daily meetings at school, I have felt that the administration at ASFM truly has my best interests as a teacher at heart. Life is not easy in a different country, but ASFM makes everything manageable. While letting you work independently, they are there when you have a need. At ASFM, teachers go at full force and are more enthusiastic than the average school staff. There is a lot of professional development and we are able to develop the curriculum for our grade levels. The kids are fun and eager to learn from you. Overall, my experience has been very positive. Nothing is perfect, but life here is good.
