Welcome to the 2023-24 academic year. I am Patience Don-Willies and excited to continue teaching 4th grade here in Romoland Elementary.  I have been teaching for about 21 years across three continents. I grew up in Ghana, West Africa, where I taught middle school, and then in London, United Kingdom, where I taught in elementary and Special Ed and now here in California. I love being a teacher and all its challenges. I believe that every child has the ability to learn in their own unique way in an appropriate and supportive environment. Here in Romoland Elementary we strive to offer such supportive environments.

On a personal note, I live with my husband and two amazing sons. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking, gardening, reading or traveling to experience new places.

Parents, please reach out with any questions on pdon-willies@romoland.net or through Parent Square.
