Hello! I am Margarita Vázquez and this is my fifth year
teaching 2nd grade at Somerset Academy. Since a
very early age, I knew I wanted to teach. I graduated
from the University of Houston in 1993 and I have been
teaching an array of subjects to different age groups
ever since. I must say, though, that what I truly
enjoy the most is teaching young children the
foundations of reading, writing, and math, among other
important skills and subjects.
My education philosophy is to strive to be the kind of
teacher that I would want for my own children. I am
married and I have three daughters at Somerset Academy.
As both mother and teacher, I believe it is important to
foster a secure and nurturing environment in which
children can learn. To that end, I work hard to
provide all my students with the opportunity to grow, be
challenged, and achieve success in the classroom.
Like William Arthur Ward, it is my belief that "the
mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The
superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher
inspires." It is my job to teach and inspire your
children to learn! |
