About Mrs. Coghlin

About Me: I was born and raised in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. My husband Michael and I have been married since 1991. He teaches Art at Central Middle School. We have three children: Elora, Josh and Isabelle. Elora is married and works as a nurse on the palliative ward at the hospital. Josh is also married and is a massage therapist. Isabelle enjoys playing guitar and piano and singing and just graduated from high school. I enjoy hiking, singing, reading, cooking and practicing meditation. I enjoy drawing and doing origami with my students.

Over the course of my teaching career I have worked in a daycare as an assistant to a young boy with autism, as a substitute teacher, a playschool teacher, an early childhood interventionist as well as several teaching contracts at various grade levels. In 2001 we moved to Red Deer from Saskatchewan for my position as Preschool Special Education Teacher at Aspire Special Needs Resource Centre, where I worked for 12 years. My time at Aspire helped me to realize that each and every one of us is a unique individual and we all have a right to learn and succeed. Great teachers are the ones who discover and nurture the hidden potential in each student. I absolutely love teaching at the early years level and participating in the joy and wonder young children experience as they learn.
