All About Ms.Tomter
Hi, my name is Brittney Tomter and I am a special education teacher at Hazelgreen Elementary School. This is my fifth year teaching and my fourth year working at the green. I am also a coach for the club Girls on the Run. This will be the second year Hazelgreen will be hosting this club as well as my second year coaching. I was a behavior therapist for a year working with families and their child(ren) with autism on functional life skills.
I received my bachelors in Learning Behavior Specialist 1 from Northern Illinois University in 2014 and an edorsement in Englsih as a Second Language from National Louis Univeristy in 2018. While at Northern Illinois Unviersity, I was apart of two organizations: Alpha Sigma Alpha sorority and Best Buddies. At Hazelgreen I am apart of the building leadership team, PBS committee, and the intervention team.
I currently live in Aurora with my boyfriend Collin and our two cats Callie and Elsa, but I was raised in Oswego. I graduated from Oswego High School in 2010. I am the oldest of three siblings. I have two younger brothers, Jordan who is 17 and Brett who is 21. My mother is a 4th grade teacher in Oswego and my father is a manager at Jimmy Johns. I love anything and everything about Cats, Christmas, and Disney. I also love to be creative and craft with my cricut machine. Teaching is my passion and I hope to make a difference in the lives of all my students and their families!
