KEREN SHINY VIJAYKUMAR

2s TEACHER

I am Keren ... I have been working with children from my high school days and handled vacation camps for preschoolers and kindergarteners in faith based community outreach events. I have been a parent and a teacher at our local community faith group weekly when my first child started out as a preschooler. With my own children it really helped me to get to understand the social emotional part of kids and self calming strategies which played a huge role in healthy child development. I have been trained in love and logic workshop and I believe in the love in each child to learn in their own unique special way.

My experience with coop preschool started with my own toddler after the pandemic which helped me realize the potential of play based learning bridged with parent assisted class room teaching...During the pandemic handled zoom vacation Bible School for the preschoolers.

I have an beautiful family of three kids and my understanding husband who supports me through my endeavors in learning with and teaching the precious little ones. We love camping, exploring nature and having hands on experiences, games and object lessons to understand difficult concepts.

SERENE HALAWEH

3s TEACHER

I am the oldest of 5 kids and have been around kids for as long as I can remember. I have my BA in Early Childhood Education from Eastern WA and have been teaching for 11 years. I took a two year teaching break and became a SAHM to my two beautiful sons. This is my first year at MCCP as a parent and as a teacher! My family includes: my husband, myself, my 2 year old son Jad, and my 4 month old (currently) son Zayn. We enjoy going to parks, the library, and spending time with the large families we have on both sides! In the rare occasion I am not with my kids, I like to watch crime tv series, craft, and clean the house!
