Beatriz was born in California, but spent her entire childhood and most of her adolescence in Mexico. While she was in Mexico she helped the adults in her community complete their primary education. It was there that she discovered her passion for teaching. After moving to the States and starting a family she decided to continue her education. Beatriz now has an associate’s degree in preschool education and four years of experience working at a preschool as well. She is about to complete her bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education with a bilingual endorsement. Beatriz strongly believes in AGC’s vision of teaching through nature, it is the number one reason she felt this was the school she wanted to be a part of.
