MRS. WILLNER
Welcome to ELL! My name is Desiree Willner and this is my fourth year as the ELL Coordinator and teacher in Palos Heights District 128. I received my B.A. in Elementary Teaching and M.A.in Educational Studies with Curriculum Design from University of Illinois at Chicago. I also have an ESL (English as a Second Language) endorsement and am currently working on a
M.A. in School Improvement Leadership (Type 75) at Olivet Nazarene University.
I currently teach English Language Learners in grades Pre-K through eight and love it. I am so lucky to spend my days working with students who are excited about learning!
In my classroom, we use a variety of teaching strategies that motivate students to take part in their learning experiences.
I was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois and currently live in Evergreen Park, Illinois with my husband and three beautiful children. I love to ice skate, ski and hang out on the beach at my cottage in Indiana over the summer! I look forward to working with my students every day and having the opportunity to be a part of their education!
