Meet Ms. Teitelbaum!

I am so excited to be joining the amazing SNS team as an ASL Teacher! A little bit about myself-I am a mom to 3 kiddos and live in Riverwoods. In my free time I love to spend time with my family and go running. I have been a teacher for 5 years and an interpreter for the Deaf for 4 years. I am excited to combine both of my passions and bring American Sign Language to the St. Norbert’s Family!
