Tamara Cortese
KINDERGARTEN TEACHER

Children have always been a big part of my life. My early career was spent in childcare, where I was able to engage with children of all ages. My teaching years started in the Rahway School District where I taught Kindergarten through Grade 5 for many years.
I graduated Cum Laude from Kean University with a B.A. in Education and went on to receive my M.A. in Education from Marygrove College.
As an educator, my primary goal is to empower students to be the best version of themselves and set them up for a successful future. My heart and passion lie in teaching the youngest minds of the future.
