She has had great success in helping students develop their literacy skills both in English and Spanish. Last year she implemented a self-monitoring system for students to track their own learning progress in math and reading. She has also implemented parental involvement programs to support parents in incorporating practical strategies at home to help their children learn. She looks forward to sharing her passion and knowledge with her new Pink family!

He has the ability to build solid relationships with kids and deliver creative and engaging lessons.
