My students know me as Señora Thillet and I am the proud Spanish teacher at Education y más.

​

I graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education and Master’s Degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I have a Florida Professional Educator Certification in Elementary Education and Educational Leadership. Recently I completed the Orton-Gillingham Reading Certificate.

​

As a native Spanish speaker, sharing the love for my language and culture has become my passion! My parents were from Puerto Rico and relocated to New Jersey where I was born and raised. Growing up I spoke Spanish and lived a culturally rich childhood.

​

I love teaching Spanish and I bring my culture into my Spanish lessons.

I believe that a good education shapes not only minds, but hearts as well. Learning a different language and traditions, especially at an early age, can make students more culturally appreciative.

​

As a Latina business owner and educator with over 20 years of professional experience,

I have tutored Kindergarten through sixth grade students since 2018.

​

I am passionate about teaching and learning.

I strongly believe all students can learn given the appropriate resources and interventions!
