Dorrette Buzbee

Dorrette is the Primary I & II Assistant at Lakehills Montessori.

I grew up in the West Indian island of Jamaica.  I lived in Barbados for seven years and travelled extensively to the United States, Trinidad and Bahamas before migrating to Austin in 2005. My two eldest siblings made teaching a career and this greatly influenced my decision to go into this field.   I am married and have an adorable teenage son.  In my spare time I enjoy gardening, cooking and entertaining.    My primary calling is to provide service.  I have worked for the post office and telecommunications but found teaching to be fulfilling.  My passion for teaching began with educational preparation at Caenwood Teachers College in Kingston Jamaica.   I’ve experienced the joy of teaching and have had the pleasure of molding young minds during teaching assignments at the Cornwall Mountain and Bethel Town Primary Schools in Westmoreland Jamaica.  My love for children motivated me to join the staff of Lake Hills Montessori in 2005.
