Experience

I am honored to have taught in Texas as a Dual Language teacher and Bilingual teacher in grades 4-6. My focus has been on teaching English Language Arts and Spanish Language Arts to students of all abilities and levels. With 6 years teaching online as well, I now have 14 years total teaching experience in and out of the classroom.

Teaching style

I have been trained to teach using the workshop model. This has allowed students to develop a deeper connection to reading and writing skills that will help them both in and beyond the classroom.

Awards & shining teacher moments

I have self-published Doodle & Plan teacher planners selling on Amazon as well as student success activity books called Doodle & Dream for inspiration, motivation and organization. Please consider adding them to your Amazon Teacher Wish List :)

My own education history

I attended the University of Texas at Austin where I received my bachelor's in Applied Learning and Development and EC-6 Bilingual certification. After a few years of teaching, I went back to school and received a master's in Educational Administration from Texas A&M University.

Additional biographical information

I currently teach English Language Learners across the world on multiple online platforms. In addition to having teacher resources on TeachersPayTeachers, I also sell self-published teacher planners and student success activity books on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Walmart online, and Lulu.com.
