Welcome y bienvenidos to English as a Second Language.

My name is Ann Krause and I work with children whose native language is not English.  I feel very priviledged to work with bilingual students.  Their intelligence and perserverence in learning inspire me every day.

I graduated from Wayne State University with a B.A. in Spanish and English.  After I had my second child I returned to Baker College and obtained my teaching certificate in Elementary Education and Language Arts.  Last fall I began my master's degree in Linguistics and received my endorsement in ESL.  I live in Oxford with my husband and three beautiful daughters. 

I am very proud of the students I work with and their parents, who are so involved in our school community.  I love working in Clarkston.  What a wonderful community!
