About the store
I was once an ELL student when I arrived to the U.S.A and now I am an educator working with English Language Learners in grades K-5, and I create resources that help students build confidence in speaking, writing, and understanding academic language. I have also taught students in middle and high school. I have been an educator for 16 years.
In my classroom, I saw how much students benefit from clear structure and support -- especially through sentence stems, visual scaffolds, and simple, meaningful practice. My goal is to create resources that make language accessible for all learners while saving teachers time.
You'll find:
- Differentiated sentence stems and frames
- Graphic organizers with built-in language support
- Speaking and writing activities for daily use
All resources are deigned to be easy to implement, student-friendly, and effective for a range of language levels.
Thank you for supporting your learners and being part of their language journey!

Teaching style
I use a scaffolded and student-centered approach to support English Language Learners in developing confidence in speaking and writing. My instruction focuses in making academic language accessible through sentence stems, visual supports, and structured practice. I gradually release responsibility to students, helping them move from supported responses to independent language use. My goal is for all students to succeed and become independent speakers and writers.
My own education history
I earned my undergraduate degree in Sociology and Childhood Education (Birth-Grade 2 and Grades 1-6) from Herbert H. Lehman College, where I also received my bilingual certification for grades 1-6. i then completed my graduate studies in TESOL at Herbert H. Lehman College, where I developed a strong foundation in supporting English Language Learners.
To further expand my leadership skills, i earned a second master's degree in District and Building Administration from Mercy College, now known as Mercy University.
