About
My name is Jantice Wilson and I'm an undergraduate student at Kean University. I was a former student at Union County College. My major is Early Childhood Education. I came to Kean University to get a higher degree in my major field. I like to work with children and I want the children to feel proud of me as a teacher. I am striving to do my best so I can become an effective teacher. I also like art and I want to teach children art appreciation and how to be creative.
