About the store

Experience

I have taught in a bilingual kindergarten classroom in Costa Rica, a dual language (two-way immersion) second grade classroom in the suburbs of Chicago, and a bilingual first grade classroom in Chicago. I recently went back to school and received my state ELL and Bilingual endorsements.

Teaching style

I try to find ways to engage different learners by creating lessons with interactive, hands-on, constructive, creative, and/or artistic elements.

Additional biographical information

I am an advocate for bilingual education programs in our schools! I am proud to be a part of a program that fosters bilingualism, biliteracy, and biculturalism.
