Hello,

My name is Mrs. Gutierrez; I am a 4th-grade bilingual teacher. I have taught 5th-grade dual language in the past. My goal is for my students to become global citizens and fluent bilinguals.

"The idea of having no native language worries me. Would you feel like a nomad inside your own head? I cannot imagine having no words that are home. A language orphan."
