Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Hello, I am an ESL teacher. This is my 5th year teaching newcomer ESL. With the number of students per class growing, the need for supplies also grows. I want my class to bring joy and a curiosity for learning for my students. Most of my students are new to the country and deserve a safe, inclusive, and warm environment to learn English for the first time. I want my class to feel like a second home, especially for those who think of school as their safe place. Help me make that a reality!
