    Class Initative:

    I am excited to continue my journey in ELA, which was my favorite subject growing up, and still remains to be my favorite thing to teach and instill the love of reading in young minds. I'm thrilled to be part of a diverse and multicultural community like Long Branch, where I not only went to all grades of school here but live in this community as well. In my classroom, I strive to create an environment where students not only learn the fundamentals of English Language Arts, but fall in love with all the things ELA and reading can offer you. In order to take you to places in your mind/imagination you may never have experienced before, or allow yourself to excel in reading and writing to secure your dream job in the future! My goal is to help students develop strong language/communication skills that will serve them in our interconnected world while providing them with the foundational skills to succeed in the years ahead. Supporting students in achieving their personal and academic goals is my top priority. I am committed to helping each student reach their fullest potential, and I look forward to seeing them grow and succeed throughout the school year.
