I am a bilingual (Spanish/English) teacher assistant with experience supporting young learners in early childhood and primary education. I worked at Giblyn School in Freeport, New York, where I assisted in classrooms from pre-K through second grade. My main role was to provide direct support to children, helping them stay engaged, follow instructions, complete activities, and build confidence in both their academic and emotional development.
As part of the instructional team, I collaborated closely with lead teachers to prepare materials, manage classroom routines, and reinforce positive behavior. I was also responsible for small-group and one-on-one instruction, especially for students who needed extra help. My bilingual background allowed me to assist English Language Learners effectively, ensuring that every child had access to clear communication and support.
My time as a teacher assistant strengthened my skills in patience, communication, and classroom management, and deepened my passion for inclusive, student-centered education. I take pride in creating a safe, welcoming environment where every child feels valued and motivated to learn.
