I've taught a total of 15 years in both the Public and Charter school setting. I’ve been a classroom teacher and intervention specialist. I am currently working as an instructional coach and intervention teacher for grades K-5.
I believe in hands on approaches to teaching. I think kids need to be active participants in their learning and vested in their classroom and teacher.
Yet to be added
Graduated with a BS in Elementary Education and a MEd in Literacy Studies both from the University of Nevada, Reno.
I'm bilingual in English and Spanish, having lived for a year in high school in Mexico. My charter school experience comes from a dual language school in which I taught all curriculum in both languages. I continue to use my Spanish daily at my current school to communicate with parents and students new to the country.
