What I'm looking for

I seek a supportive teaching environment that values collaboration and professional growth.

I am an experienced educator with a Master's in Special Needs Education and a Bachelor's in Early Childhood Education. My journey in the educational field has equipped me with the skills to adapt to various teaching environments and challenges. I thrive in collaborative settings and am committed to fostering a positive and engaging learning atmosphere for my students.

Throughout my career, I have taught Spanish to high school students and instructed kindergarteners in all core subjects, emphasizing full language immersion. My lesson plans are designed to be developmentally appropriate, blending academic instruction with immersive language experiences. I take pride in my ability to communicate effectively, solve problems, and maintain a strong work ethic, ensuring that each student receives the support they need to succeed.
