My name is Samantha Miller.  I’ve been studying Gayogoho:nǫˀ for six years.  I have my Early Childhood Education diploma and worked at Six Nations Daycare for twelve years teaching Gayogoho:nǫˀ to children aged 6 months to 5 years of age.  I started at Dwadewayęhstaˀ Gayogoho:nǫˀ as a student in 2013.  I learned so much and wanted to keep going.  I was lucky as I was able to continue my studies here at DG until 2016.  I helped teach several night classes alongside other Dwadewayęhstaˀ alumni.  I went back to teaching at daycare and briefly at school.  I started working at Dwadewayęhstaˀ Gayogoho:nǫˀ in October 2017 as a Teacher Assistant.  I really enjoy working here at DG with staff, students and our fluent speakers.  I learn something new every day about our language and ways.  Learning Gayogoho:nǫˀ can be challenging, but we must keep on pushing forward because our language is who we are as Ǫgwehǫ:weh people.
