Hello! My name is Mai Kou Lor. I am a Special Education Teacher-LD at Nokomis South.  I was born and raised in Green Bay, WI and moved to Minnesota five years ago and love it here. I have three sisters and five brothers. 

I graduated with a Human Development and Psychology degree for my undergrad from the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay and  graduated with my Master's in Special Education from Bethel University. This is my 3rd year as a special education teacher. Prior to coming to Nokomis South, I was a special education teacher at a Hmong charter school in the St. Paul area. I have always loved working with students and seeing them grow. I also love seeing students become more confident with their academics and know that they are able to succeed. 

When I am not teaching, I enjoy watching football with my family and my favorite football team is the Green Bay Packers. I also enjoy watching Korean dramas and listening to Korean pop music.
