What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to empower educators and enhance student learning through innovative curriculum design and professional development.

My name is Sarah Zapata, and I have dedicated over a decade to the education field, focusing on culturally diverse children aged 0-11. My journey began in the classroom, where I found immense joy in nurturing young minds and witnessing their growth. As I progressed in my career, I transitioned into educational leadership, where I have had the privilege of training, coaching, and observing teachers as they flourish in their roles. My commitment to supporting educators has allowed me to contribute positively to their professional development and, ultimately, to the success of their students.

In my current role as a Technical Assistance Specialist, I develop and deliver professional development to over 150 teachers, ensuring they have the tools and resources necessary to create effective learning environments. I am passionate about designing instructional materials and providing educational support both in and out of the classroom. My bilingual skills and strong communication abilities enable me to connect with families and educators alike, fostering a collaborative approach to education that meets the diverse needs of children.
