Hello, My name is Gabriela Martinez and I am one of McMeen’s 2nd Grade Dual Language teachers. I was born in Mexico but moved to this beautiful country 20 years ago. I grew up speaking only Spanish and learning a second language myself. I have been in education for more than 10 years, this is my 5th year as a Teacher. I strongly believe in and value bilingual education, especially from a young age. As a Dual language teacher, I can apply my own experiences with learning a new language with my own students. I have a Bachelor Degree in Human Development with a minor in Education from Metropolitan State University and am working toward my Masters Degree.
When I’m not teaching, I like gardening, cooking, running, dancing and spending time with my family. I am excited to work with all of you this school year and looking forward to a great year!
