Early Years Teacher in bilingual and international schools, who adapted Emergent Readers for toddlers’ early literacy and second-language learning.

Brazil
Message

At Escola Hibbo, I adapted Emergent Readers for toddlers, using repeated stories, props, and interactive activities to support early literacy and second-language acquisition. I also developed a toddler-programme rubric connecting language goals with National Curriculum Standards; the collaboration led to a family report format adopted school-wide.

At Avenues, I developed oral-language strategies and a structured literacy programme, and planned phonics workshops for children with different learning needs. My teaching draws on inquiry-based learning and my Master's in Social Anthropology to create culturally responsive classrooms where children can explore, build autonomy, and develop social-emotional skills.
