Mr. Valdez Classroom

My Personal Biography

My name is Mr. Valdez. I am an 8th grade math and algebra 1 teacher. This will be my third year teaching at Chacon Middle School, but my twelve year teaching at Mercedes ISD. I received a bachelor degree in Secondary Mathematics from The University of Texas Pan American in Edinburg Texas and a Master of education in school counseling from Lamar University in Beaumont Texas. I love helping students to apply mathematical concepts in real life situations using it in an engaging and challenging way. I go beyond the textbook and attend workshops in continuing education that give extra help to increase my ability of teaching to improve student learning, but only students can really make the difference by listening to their teachers, by working hard during the lessons and by studying seriously. I wish you all an excellent and happy school year.
