Tucker,+Delfina



Hi my name is Delfina Tucker and I have three kids. I have two girls- eleven and six- and a two year old boy. Something interesting about me is I like to fold origami. I like to make origami birds and other animals.

The picture above is me at my SOU graduation. I received my bachelors degree in elementary education and I am planning to be an upper elementary teacher or a middle school math teacher. I have worked with a wide range of children from birth to middle school and I love all the levels. Right now I have the wonderful opportunity to work with toddlers and young preschoolers at my church. I enjoy their playfulness and learn new things from them every day.

What brings me joy are my own kids. I have three wonderful but challenging children. My eleven year old, Audrey-Leigh, is so smart and was born to challenged the world. She likes things her way and to her, the world is only black or white, never gray. Audrey-Leigh is so smart; I have learned a lot from her. I also have a six year old, Delilah, who is going on sixteen. She is so precocious. She learned to read at four and has been sucking up knowledge ever since. I am a little worried about her being bored later in school but I plan on challenging her at home. Then their is my son, Leo. He is a busy toddler. He loves to get into everything and he is the perfect example of why people learned to keep everything 'out of the reach of children.
