Brittany Cohen

Hello, my name is Brittany Cohen. I am a Special Education Teacher at an alternative school in the Germantown area of Philadelphia. I teach reading and writing to emotionally at-risk youth. I have the most brilliant, silly, resilient students in the world, and I absolutely adore being a teacher. When I am not teaching, I spend my time writing poetry, playing music, performing at open mic nights, and engaging in mindfulness meditations.
