Teaching style
My teaching style is student-centered, trauma-informed, and grounded in clarity, connection, and cultural responsiveness. I create resources that are WIDA- and ELP-aligned, with built-in scaffolds for newcomer and SLIFE students at all language levels.
I focus on visual supports, oral language practice, comprehensible input, and real-life context to build confidence across all four domains—listening, speaking, reading, and writing. My lessons are designed to be low-prep, highly visual, and adaptable for multi-level classrooms. I also weave in SEL, language routines, and inclusive activities to build community and make students feel seen.
My goal is to equip ESL and mainstream teachers with tools that help English learners grow—academically, linguistically, and emotionally.
Awards & shining teacher moments
Selected for Phi Kappa Phi and Alpha Lambda Delta, I bring academic excellence into culturally responsive, trauma-informed ESL resources that truly support the whole learner.
My own education history
I earned my Bachelor of Science in Education from Wayne State College with endorsements in English as a Second Language (ESL) and Reading & Writing. I graduated with a 4.0 GPA and was selected for several national honors, including Alpha Lambda Delta and The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi, which recognize top academic achievement.
Throughout my program, I gained hands-on experience across a wide range of settings—including elementary, middle, and high school classrooms, special education, and newcomer ESL programs. I completed extensive practicum hours in K–12 ESL settings and served as a bilingual paraprofessional and translator while earning my degree. Upon graduation, I stepped into the role of a K-12 newcomer teacher.
I bring this experience—and a deep commitment to creating safe, inclusive classrooms—to every resource I create
