Santina

My name is Santina and teaching is my passion. I attended Adelphi University's STEP (Scholar Teacher's Education Program), receiving a BA in anthropology with a concentration in gender studies and a MA in childhood education with a concentration in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). I am certified in NYS to teach all subjects in the elementary classroom (grades 1-6) and English as a second language to all ages. Throughout college, I worked with a program called America Reads America Counts, tutoring elementary school students in Hempstead, New York. Most recently, I was living in Brazil teaching English to students ranging in age from early adolescence to adulthood. In addition to my passion for teaching, I am passionate advocate for women's reproductive rights and I am a trained birth doula. In my free time, I love to travel, learn new things, hike, and crochet.
