Bio

Welcome

Bienvenidos a la clase de espanol. My name is Dianne Alejandra Martinez, and I am the

Spanish teacher at Holy Angels! This is my first year at Holy Angels, and I am very excited to

teach the students a foreign language and further enhance the knowledge they already

have about the language and the culture.

A little bit about me: I have a little poodle maltese named Coco, and he is my wonderful

baby boy! I enjoy going to amusement parks, watching movies, going on walks, reading,

football, and baking. I am also a big Disney and Marvel fan.

Education and Professional Background

I earned my associate’s degree in history from Cerritos Community College. Then I

transferred over to California State University, Fullerton where I earned my Bachelor of

Science degree in Child Development. I also attended Pepperdine University where I

started my master’s degree in education. I have been teaching for about 6 years now and

can’t wait to grow more.

Educational Philosophy

I firmly believe that education should nurture the whole child—academically, socially, and

spiritually. With six years of experience in elementary and bilingual classrooms, I have seen

how language builds bridges between cultures and fosters empathy. As a Spanish teacher

that is joining Holy Angels, I strive to create a joyful, faith-filled environment where students

feel valued, inspired to learn, and empowered to grow into compassionate, lifelong learners.
