I knew as early as second grade that I wanted to be an educator and being one is truly my passion. I began teaching in the third grade and then took time off to start a family. While I was taking care of my four boys, I tutored and became trained in After all of my boys were in school, I started substituting and knew I wanted to be back in the classroom. In September of 2014, I joined Woodmont School as a basic skills teacher. I am grateful to be working with such a wonderful staff, children, and parents. When I am not teaching, I enjoy watching my sons at their sporting events and spending a lot of time at the Jersey shore with my family. Pattiann Olivieri- BSI Teacher I am a Basic Skills Instructor here at Woodmont. Many of my students struggle with reading or math, so I make it my goal to help them overcome their obstacles so that they can be their best and love learning. I have been a teacher since 1995. I graduated from Fairleigh Dickinson University with a degree in English. I then earned my Elementary Education degree from William Paterson University. After working as a Title 1 teacher in third and fourth grades in Newark for several years, I began teaching third grade at Woodmont in 1999. When I returned from my first maternity leave (I have two awesome daughters), I became a Basic Skills Instructor at Woodmont School. Over the years, I have taught in just about every grade. I work closely with my amazing team, the two other Basic Skills Instructors on staff, Mrs. Cabana and Mrs. Mancuso. I feel tremendously fortunate to be part of a trio that is always learning and growing and working at our shared goal of remediating deficits. As for myself, I am dedicated to helping students achieve grade level objectives. I truly cannot think of a better way to spend my work life. And, I can’t think of a better place to teach. Woodmont is the best!
