Hello students and families! I am so happy to be teaching Language Arts and ELD this year! This is my 5th year as a proud Thunderhawk! Every job I have ever had, (beginning in high school) involved working with children. Starting from a children's shoe store, to then a preschool teacher, until I began working as a paraeducator in a high school classroom of amazing students with moderate to severe disabilities. The five years experience I gained in a classroom of students of diverse abilities further encouraged me to pursue my passion of teaching English/Language Arts. I graduated at CSUSM with a degree in Literature and Writing Studies and completed my teaching credential at this same institution.
My Philosophy
“All children are unique and require a stimulating learning environment where all can reach their full potential. While the students are at the center and forefront of their learning, I will act as a guide, and present a curriculum that will include all learners as active participants. The higher the expectation, the most they will achieve."
