My name is Teacher Gissela. I'm very enthusiastic to be working with the Room 2 Precious Penguins. As a preschool teacher, I'm committed to creating a safe, fun and nurturing environment for all my students to help them learn and grow. I completed an Early Intervention Assistant Program and Family Child Care while working as a student aide at FCC Child Development Center with toddlers and preschoolers. I have over seven years experience working with children in various educational settings.
I believe that every child has a unique personality and they all have their own way to learn and explore the environment as they grow. My teaching method is play based as children learn the best when they are engaged and having fun.
In my spare time, I enjoy reading, yoga and spending time with family and outdoors. In the near future I plan to return to school to get my Bachelor's in Early Childhood Education. I've attended various childhood education workshops throughout my career and will continue to do so as opportunities arise.
I'm blessed to have a job that I truly enjoy and the opportunity to make a difference in your child's first educational experience. I feel there is a higher purpose in caring for your children and guiding them to understand the world around them.
I was born and raised in the Central Valley. I attended Fresno City College and Fresno Pacific University. I have been working with children almost forty years and my passion is children and enriching their lives. They are always bringing insight to mine.
I always have time to discuss your child's day with my parents.
My hobbies include playing softball, spending time with family, friends, pets, naps and netflix. Some of my favorite things are Mexican food and BBQ, Arizona Ice Tea and Snapple Zero, the color purple and Carnations.
