About Me

Hi, my name is Torene or, for those students who need more formalities, Mrs. David. I've been a teacher here at Montessori for the past eleven years. I moved to Guatemala with my husband, Omar, too many years ago to count. We have two children, Chelsea and Anthony, and three dogs, Hans, Ruby, and Rebecca. We live up in the mountains and have a spectacular view of the city.
