CARLA AARON-LOPEZ

as a professional student of life, I believe students of all ages have the ability to learn anything and create anything. it’s how we transfer that information to the learner, guide the learner through obstacles and relate to our neighbors that makes the hard work of education that much more fulfilling. every student deserves the chance to grow and glow.
