TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I am teaching a 2nd grade class in a low income school. I use what I make to add enrichment to my students' education and break away from textbooks and boring worksheets.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I have a very laid back teaching style and focus a lot on enriching and developing student creativity. My students collaborate to build their own education by learning as much from themselves and their peers as they do from me.

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

Graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelors of Science in EC-6 ESL education

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

Graduate from Texas State University in San Marcos, Texas
