  16. school District from August of 2016.
  17. Up to May of 2020 I taught as 1/4 grade
  18. and seventh grade teacher at Title one schools in the
  19. Mary Belle Community of Phoenix, Arizona, focusing on the areas
  20. of reading, writing, mathematics and science.
  21. Having served families of low socioeconomic status, I strive to
  22. build strong relationships with my students and work collaboratively with
  23. parents to help ensure the academic success of my students
  24. building report and a sense of community with my students

  30. and provide these students and their parents with the tools
  31. they need to become successful.

  33. Glendale Union High School District, where I will be teaching
  34. as a high school Spanish teacher again at a title
  35. one school in Glendale, Arizona, And realizing that I still
  36. have more to give, I decided to shift age groups
  37. for this upcoming 2020 21 school year.
  38. In this new position, I believe that I can have
  39. a greater impact than ever before.
  40. I now have the opportunity to not only serve families
  41. of low socioeconomic status, but I will be working directly
  42. with students who are transitioning to college.
  43. For most of these students, they will be the first
  44. in their families to attend college, and they're exactly the
  45. type of students that I long to work with.
  46. Being a first generation college student has its many obstacles,
  47. but it will be mine gold to support and help

  49. adulthood, I actively look for ways to continue serving families
  50. in these communities outside of my normal full time teaching.

  59. are presented for them, and for many of these learners
  60. they're better equipped to support their child with their education.
