What I'm looking for

I'm looking to continue creating rigorous, differentiated Spanish, ESL, or bilingual instruction that supports students’ individual learning needs and abilities.

At Hackettstown Middle School, I create rigorous Spanish and ESL lesson plans that accommodate learners at all levels while incorporating state standards.

I teach pronunciation, grammar, composition, and sentence construction, differentiating instruction around each student’s individual learning needs and abilities. I also maintain communication with guardians regarding grades and behavior.

Previously, at Basking Ridge Middle School, I continued lessons within a rigid, fast-paced program and documented detailed notes and logs for the returning teacher.

I bring certifications in Elementary K–5, World Language–Spanish, and ESL/Bilingual education, along with fluency in Spanish and Portuguese.
