 * John Waters:** I have been a teacher with the AIU-AEP for five years. I began as an English Teacher at the Shuman Center School, then moved to the East Liberty Education Center to teach Social Studies for three years, and now I have returned to Shuman to teach Social Studies. I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh with my History degree and received my teaching certificate through Carlow University.


 * Millie Guentner:** I've been in the program since 1970! I started out teaching elementary students at McIntyre Shelter. I became a reading specialist, graduating with a MED from Duquesne University. In 1981 I was transferred to Shuman Center where I taught Language Arts until I took over the role of testing/placement coordinator. I also teach language arts to three groups 1 time a week.


 * Jeanne Shaffer**...I started with Millie, and have worked with many of the people in this program. The program has evolved into many different things over the years but it has always been about the kids. That's what keeps me coming back. I teach at Auberle and am the site coordinator. I work with all younger teachers and learn something new from them every day and I love it.


 * Kristine Autenreith:** I've been a teacher with the AEP since 2002. I started out working as the RESC North teacher for 2 1/2 years, & have been the CSW English teacher for the past 5 1/2 years. My undergrad degree is from La Roche College, & my masters is from Gannon U. I'm certified in English & Social Studies, and enjoy teaching either of these subjects.


 * Martha Steckel:** My history of teaching has always been with these kids. I started at Harborcreek Youth Services, moved to Pittsburgh and taught/supervised at Craig House aka Craig Academy, went to the Bradley Center then on January 31, 2000 joined the AEP at Central II South Side as an English teacher. I can't imagine working with "normal" kids-how boring!
