I'm a Special Education graduate and English teacher with over 5 years of experience working with preschool and elementary students. I've taught a diverse group of classes, and I am passionate about learning and expand knowledge. My focus is on making learning clear, engaging and inclusive. I've worked with students with different cognitive, behavioral, and emotional needs, I adapt lessons with tools like scaffolding, structured routines, and social-emotional learning. I really enjoy working with families and colleagues to support students, and I believe kids learn best when they feel safe, motivated, and respected. My goal is to always help each children grow in confidence and independence while developing strong academic skills.
