As an English Language Arts teacher at MS118, I believe every child is a unique individual who brings something special to the world. My goal is to instill the belief in my students that they can achieve anything. I strive to encourage my students to be curious, seek answers, and become critical thinkers by providing them a safe and caring space. 

Over the past three years, it has brought me tremendous joy to hear students say, “I didn’t think I could love reading” and “can we please read the next chapter today, I can’t wait until tomorrow.” My choice of culturally responsive texts along with my deep love for reading and writing allows my students to discover reading genres that interest them and become successful writers.
