My Students

My students are not unique to NYC, but unique to the rest of the country. We are a class made up of students from all over the world- Pakistan, El Salvador, Mexico, Ukraine, Russia, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Republic of Georgia and Puerto Rico. Many students arriving from their native countries only a few years to a few weeks ago. With that being said, these children are have taken to their new homes with the bright-eyed wonder only a child could have.

This unique class amazes me everyday- they may be from all over the world, but they accept each other with open arms and kindness as if they are family.

I hope to foster this attitude with giving back to the kids with as many resources to keep them engaged and curious.

My Project

I would like to give my student a computer. She is new to America with limited resources, who deserves the advantage to participate in remote learning, but is currently at a disadvantage with lack of technology at home. I have never met a student that is so hard working, so dedicated- she never gives up trying to understand a concept in a subject new to her. She especially loves science and math (apparently studied very little of the subjects in her home country).

She has so many questions, curiosities, and interests and I don't want to limit her experiences and exposure to the world around her.

I see intellectual leaps in the short time we've been together- all while learning a new language. Now, she is only held back- stifled, because she can not search out where her intellectual curiosities take her to continue to grow.
