I am a dedicated elementary educator with 20+ years of extensive experience creating engaging, personalized learning experiences for young learners. Currently serving as a 4th Grade ESL, RLA, and Social Studies teacher at Midway ISD's Hewitt Elementary, I specialize in differentiated instruction, curriculum design, and data-driven teaching practices that maintain academic rigor while fostering a genuine love of learning. With advanced certifications in EC-4 Generalist, EC-4 ESL Supplemental, GT, and specialized training through Reading Academy and Math Academy, I excel at adapting instruction to meet individual student needs and monitoring progress through meaningful assessment and feedback. Beyond the classroom, I serves as a Baylor Mentor Teacher Leader for Baylor University, a 2nd year Fellow with the Leaders Readers Network, and a UIL academic coach for grades 2-5, demonstrating a commitment to both student excellence and professional leadership. Recognized as a TIA Recipient and Mentoring Alliance Summer School Teacher, I bring strong skills in collaboration, critical thinking, and communication to every role. Looking forward, I aim to continue advancing literacy excellence, mentoring educators in best practices, and fostering competitive academic achievement while maintaining transparent parent engagement and creating inclusive learning environments where all students can thrive.
