My Project

I am an ENL (English as a New Language) teacher for grades K to 5. My goal is very simple--for my students to reach theirs! Trying my best to provide the resources they need to thrive both academically and personally.

Jaime Escalante, a Bolivian-American educator, stated, "Education is the ticket to success." With determination and a strong academic foundation, my students will have the chance to taste it!

In order to accomplish this, proper learning materials are needed for my ELL (English-language-learner) students, especially those who are starting to learn the English language.

By supplying these resources, they will help my current and future ELL students improve their English skills - speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Their self-confidence will increase because they now have the ability to communicate with their classmates, teachers, and administration inside and outside of school. Even more so, they can correspond with others within their neighborhood and maybe one day the world!

Nelson Mandela, an anti-apartheid activist and the first president of South Africa, said, "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”

Knowledge gives us the strength to overcome any adversity that comes our way.

Any donation you contribute, we are truly grateful because it will bring us one step closer to our goal.
