Allow me to introduce myself to you. My name is Aliza Freedman. I am thrilled to be teaching Kindergarten this year. This school year will mark my 18th year of teaching. I was born in NJ and moved to Utah in 2009. Before moving to Utah, I taught pre-k and kindergarten for 7 years in NJ. Here in Utah, I have taught 6 years in kindergarten and two years in 3rd grade. Before coming to William Penn, I taught at Roosevelt Elementary, Granger Elementary and then Millcreek Elementary. I am a third-generation teacher in my family. Mom was a high-school science teacher and later went into administration and is now retired and my father has been a college professor for over 50 years and has no interest in retiring yet. I graduated from Rutgers University in NJ with a bachelors in Biological Sciences and where I served as chancellor of the chess team. I have a Masters degree in Teaching and Learning from Nova South Eastern University and a professional teaching certification in early childhood. I am a proud mom, wife and daughter and I can’t wait to meet your little one and be their teacher. It is a role that I cherish and I love being a part of their first experience with school. My favorite color is hot pink, light pink and every pink shade in between. My hobbies include, writing, reading, problem solving, salsa music and thrift shopping. My mission is to instill a love for learning in each and every student and to teach with passion and love. If you have any questions or concerns about the year, please email me at the above listed email. I look forward to meeting you all very soon.

I am so excited to be joining the William Penn family and I am thrilled to be teaching kindergarten this year! My past experiences in the business world as well as in the classroom have given me extensive opportunities in leading and motivating groups and individuals. I am so excited to be back in the classroom where my passion has always been. I've had the privilege of teaching in Fiji, Hawaii, New York City and Utah. I met my husband while attending BYU-Hawaii, where I received my B.S. in Elementary Education. Following college, we moved to Utah and have raised our family in my husband's hometown over the past 14 years. I was born and raised in Washington DC and love all of the diverse experiences that I have had living all over the U.S. I bring a vibrant energy and a passion for active learning to the classroom. When I'm not in the classroom, you can find me outdoors, mountain biking, running, or cheering on my three amazing kids at their various sports events. My love for being active and engaged translates into my teaching style, where I aim to create a dynamic, supportive, and fun learning environment for our little ones. I am looking forward to a fantastic year ahead, filled with growth, discovery, and lots of fun. Together, we will make this year unforgettable for your child!
