School of Education Student & Alumni Profiles

Ruby Chantire
Ruby Chantire
Candidate for M.S. in Bilingual Childhood Special Education

I chose Adelphi because
of the high level of expertise professors bring to the classroom. Dedicated, quality instructors share their experiences and provide an open forum while students learn, not only by listening, but also by participating in hands-on activities.

Besides Adelphi, I am balancing
a full-time job at The Children's Aid Society, taking Brazilian Portuguese lessons and caring for my family.

I'm extremely passionate about
educating children in the most creative and memorable form possible. I am a fan of teaching in natural environments where students learn by experience.

In 10 years,
I hope to use my language skills to help students become masters of their craft by tapping into their hidden talents and instilling in them my mantra; "Love what you're learning!"
