Tameka Landers Faculty Profiles David Morimoto |
The first person in her family to go to college, Tameka landed a teaching job in Brooklyn, NY before she even graduated. But it’s no surprise success has come early for her — she was inspired to teach kids back in junior high when she was first being taught African dance. She’s thrilled to have found equally inspiring teachers at Lesley. "The student and faculty relationships at Lesley are awesome and the coursework really taught me how to think," she says. "Social Problems, taught by Ann-Charlotte Hoagstadius, especially showed me how to observe and evaluate things going on around the world. I think that class alone changed my life." Tameka’s initiative was also evident outside the classroom. She shared her knowledge of African dance by creating a workshop for her fellow Wendell House residents. "Lesley changed my life in so many ways, I wanted to give something back." |
