Welcome to my page! I teach in a Title 1 school in New York City where at least 40 percent of the students come from low income families. My classroom is a self-contained special education class with students that have varying disabilities and many of them are English Language Learners, as well. My students came into my classroom already fighting a difficult battle academically and socially. These students have struggles that we can never fully comprehend. I strive to make our classroom a community where they are safe, valued and respected. A haven where they are engaged academically and inspired to succeed despite their struggles. Your generosity makes it possible for me to access materials that will help my students in their learning and engagement in class. Your generosity also assists me in teaching my students the skills that they need to become independent and productive adults in the future. Thank you!!
