As a highly dedicated English teacher, my pedagogical approach revolves around crafting engaging and interactive lesson plans tailored to the needs of each age group. In Early Childhood Education, Elementary and Middle School levels, as well as High School, my priority lies in igniting students' curiosity.

My classes are renowned for their dynamism and methodological diversity. I incorporate activities that resonate with students' everyday lives, such as songs, snippets from series, and cartoons, ensuring an authentic and relevant learning experience. Directed dialogues and interactive games are essential tools to make the learning process captivating and effective.

The core of my teaching rests in creating an environment conducive to active student engagement. I strive to awaken their curiosity and foster participation through practices that reflect their own experiences. Through meaningful interaction with the language, my aim is not only to teach English but also to cultivate a lasting passion for language acquisition.

With an ongoing focus on adapting to individual student needs, my objective is to ensure each class is a valuable and stimulating experience, contributing to linguistic and personal growth for every learner.

I am thrilled to bring my passion for education and commitment to innovative methods to a new opportunity within your institution.
