| Introduction | Even though I am a third generation Mexican-American, I began elementary school in Houston, TX not knowing any English. I had the desire to become a bilingual elementary teacher as a young girl but my parents couldn't afford to send me to college. As the oldest of seven children, I was expected to help my parents and siblings by getting a job as soon as I finished high school. As a result, I worked 20 years in the business field as a secretary, accounts payable clerk and administrative assistant. My husband, Richard and I have been married for 36 years and have no children. I received my teaching certification in 1998 and have been teaching at Hollibrook Elementary ever since. I taught third grade for eight years and have been teaching fourth grade for four years. I share the same teaching philosophy as my fellow blogger: Teaching is My Passion! |
