Hello! I am a second grade bilingual Spanish/ESL teacher in a neighborhood school in Chicago. I am lucky enough to teach in the area where I grew up and continue to live in. I am going into my third year of teaching and I absolutely love what I do! My mother is a teacher so I spent all my days off in high school and college volunteering in her classroom. Teaching is my passion and destiny! I think about how to improve as a teacher every single day. I am hopeful that with guidance and perseverance, I can someday be one of the very best!
