Bio
Hi! I’m Mrs.Liguez and I believe that teaching is not just about delivering lessons, it’s about inspiring a lifelong love of learning. In my classroom, I focus on creating a positive, inclusive, and engaging environment where every student feels seen, valued, and encouraged to take academic risks. My teaching philosophy centers on the idea that relationships come first. I strive to build strong connections with my students, understanding their individual strengths, learning styles, and goals. By doing so, I can better support their growth both academically and personally. I bring a warm, enthusiastic, and creative energy into my teaching every day. Whether I’m using hands-on activities, integrating technology, or bringing real-world connections into the curriculum, I love finding new ways to make learning meaningful and memorable!
Teacher Specialization
With 16 years of dedicated experience in education I bring a deep understanding of the diverse needs of learners. Throughout my career I have worked with students of different abilities and English Language Learners. I have teaching endorsements specializing in ESOL, ESE and Gifted learners. I also have my Masters in Educational Administration and Leadership. I have worked closely with students to help them meet the state standards and pass the required assessments. Much of my professional journey has been rooted in literacy having also spent years as an Academic Recovery Reading Coach to both students and teachers. I have also worked as an After school program director where I made lessons engaging with hands on learning bringing STEM and STEAM to meet literacy.
