Hello, I am starting my 18th year as an Elementary Educator. This will be my 17th year teaching the Gifted and High Achiever population. Teaching is the only profession I was interested in since I was a child. Although, life took me on other paths, I am blessed to now be able to do what I love. I was an ESOL student when I first came to the U.S. However, an amazing tutor along with great teachers helped me master the language in a short amount of time. I will be forever grateful. I believe that every student has the potential to grow and reach great academic heights. Hard work, encouragement, and sincere support are the key ingredients to make it happen. Thank you for this opportunity to help your child be the best he/she can be.
