I teach in a Sheltered English Immersion classroom, where I serve as both a general curriculum and ESL teacher for 30 students. My students are mainly Spanish and Portuguese speakers with heritage from Brazil, Guatemala, Ecuador, and Peru (although we also welcome students from Vietnam, Haiti, and many other countries around the world); all of whom are in the very early stages of English language acquisition. Most of them are from low-income households with hard-working parents and families who are seeking to give their children the best education possible. While the challenge of learning a new language and the customs of a new culture can be overwhelming, especially for 6 and 7 year-olds, my first grade students inspire me everyday with their resilience, effort, grit, and gratitude. I am so honored to educate and engage these children in social/emotional, academic, and linguistic learning!
