My classroom serves a diverse group of ESOL students, many of whom are newcomers to the United States and are developing both their English skills and their confidence in a new environment. I strive to create a space where students feel safe, supported, and connected to their school community. In addition to teaching, I coach our school’s esports team. Esports has become a meaningful pathway for involvement, giving students — especially those who may not participate in traditional activities — a place to belong. Through teamwork, competition, and shared goals, students build friendships, strengthen communication skills, and develop pride in representing their school. This program helps students feel engaged, valued, and truly part of the school community.
