Fun Facts

I teach Zumba at my local gym. Dancing is something that I have been passionate about since I was a kid. My mom used to take me to her gym and we would go to Zumba classes together and it is something that has become part of my life. I became a fitness instructor to show students that taking care of your physical and mental health helps you to stay productive in your careers too!

About Me

I am a 4th grade teacher at Pine Crest Elementary School. This will be my third year teaching fourth grade. This coming school year I will become team leader of my grade and I am super excited for this upcoming experience. I am currently getting my master's degree in administration and one day hope to become a principle.

Experience

When I attended the University of Maryland, I tutored for many families that I met through out my field experience internship. I have worked with students ranging from first grade to tenth grade. I believe that every student has the right to grow academically, social, and emotionally into lifelong learners.

Approach

Growing up reading is something that I did not like and it affected how I performed in elementary school. I was shy and did not participate in class. When I entered the fourth grade, I had a teacher Mrs. Corrado and she changed my life. After that school year not only did I love reading but I found my calling for teaching. I will provide an environment that supports the social, emotional, and academic success of every student through building relationships.
