Hello! My name is Xiomara or Xio to the children. I grew up in the Bay Area in a Mexican American household. This will be my fourth year teaching and working in a Montessori school and I am very passionate about Maria Montessori’s philosophy and work as I grew up attending Montessori schools myself.
I am excited to be bringing new Spanish, art, and science projects to the table as well as a love for meditation and yoga. Some fun facts you may not know about me are that I used to train in the martial art of Kung Fu as well as teach it, and I enjoy rescuing and fostering animals of all shapes and sizes when they are in need.
In my free time I love singing, writing poetry, trying out new recipes and spending time with my dog named Noodle and close friends and family . I look forward to building strong relationships with all of the students and their wonderful families at the moraga campus.
