LinkedIn: Profile
“She has taught in programs that were “unwed teens, homeless populations, and children with neurologically-based
processing issues.” Her commitment to the principles of beneficence and justice on behalf of high-risk, multi-problem
populationsshould be noted. Given the decline in the moral fabric of this society in every institution, it is a refreshing
delight to knowthat Belita’smoral character is above reproach. That is, she acknowledges and honors the rights,
freedom, and dignity of individuals,the cardinal attributesof an effective educator.”
