¡Hola y bienvenidos! Hello and welcome!
Welcome to 1st Grade Spanish Immersion at Union Park Elementary. I am excited about our upcoming 24- 25 school year with your students! Our year will be full of adventures; learning Math, Science, and Spanish in my class. Together we will work on ensuring your student gets a full year's worth of growth.
As an educator, I promise to always:
- Provide a welcoming and learning environment for all students.
- Make each student feel like they are noticed and seen as an individual.
- Be prepared, organized, efficient, and enthusiastic to the best of my ability.
- Make sure each student reaches their own highest personal academic potential.
- Ensure every parent feels their child's education is in the right hands.
- Continue to learn to provide the best teaching strategies.
As a child, I grew up speaking only Spanish and was immersed in the English language during kindergarten. My mother was a firm believer that we would pick it up on our own during school. I have to say, it worked! My parents are from Sonora, Mexico. My great-grandparents were Chinese, Italian, Tarahumara (Native Mexican), and Mexican -- their common link was a form of the Spanish language. I have taught for 7 years in total. I have taught in high school and in a kindergarten setting. I have a Master's in Secondary Ed (SEI Endorsed), Elementary Ed (SEI Endorsed), certified in K-12, an MFA in Creative Writing, and a BA in Literature.
The objective is to teach your students through many different strategies that best meet their needs academically and emotionally, to master the first-grade standards. It's important to me that your student gets the most out of this journey in the Spanish Immersion.
I look forward to another amazing year in education with your students this year!
