Rubyha McKenzieIntrospective, observant, reflective as the fourth in a family of eight children and a dad who nurtured her love of silence, of words, and of nature; multicultural, funny and tolerant as only a Trinidadian can be; analytical, compassionate, and nurtuing as a practitioner of "teach teaching, and not correcting" - a core principle of the educational philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori: as a Primary teacher in 1971, London, England; and as an elementary level teacher in 2007, MD, USA, and going forward; experiencing the metamorphosis of parenting two beautiful young souls; respectful of protocols, of Grace and Courtesy, and the art of communication: gifts of twenty-seven years as a foreign service wife; privileged to volunteer service to young parents as an educator in Peel Region; to seniors as a creative writing facilitator, and as a community builder at the residential and parochial levels in Mississauga, ON Canada.
