ANTONIETTE P.

As a proud member of the Ontario College of Teachers, Antoniette’s passion for teaching began early. After graduating from York Unversity’s Concurrent Bachelor of Education degree program 25 years ago, she was fortunate to step right into the classroom, securing a teaching position immediately. Since then, she has been dedicated to inspire, support, and make a difference in the lives of her students. Teaching has been more than just a career for Antoniette, it’s been a calling ever since she was a little girl. She found joy in helping others learn, whether it was playing “teacher” with her siblings or guiding younger children through their schoolwork. That passion never faded; it only grew stronger. Now as an educator, she has the privilege to shape young minds every day. For her, teaching has become a purpose, a journey, and an ongoing commitment to empowering students. When summer arrives, Antoniette embraces another passion beyond the classroom. She loves to travel with her family, exploring new places, and making unforgettable memories. Whether it’s chasing waterfalls, hiking through rainforests, or simply immersing herself in nature’s beauty, she explores the world with the same wonder she encourages in her students. Every adventure is an opportunity to learn and grow together. As she encourages her students to be curious in the classroom, she strives to carry that same curiosity into the world around her. Teaching and exploring are deeply connected, each unlocking opportunities for discovery, wonder, and a lifelong love for learning.
