IN HER 7TH YEAR OF TEACHING, ADREANNA MARTINEZ IS HELPING STUDENTS WITH A SOMETIMES DIFFICULT SUBJECT. WORKING WITH ANGLES AND NUMBERS IS SOMETIMES CONFUSING, BUT SHE LETS STUDENTS KNOW THAT ALGEBRA IS NOT THAT HARD, WHEN YOU PUT IT IN PRACTICAL TERMS OF EVERYDAY LIFE.
"I do try to relate it to the real world as much as possible. And I really try to expose them for what they are gonna be using it for." Says Adreanna Martinez
Eric Butler\Student comments"She explains the questions, so we don't struggle. And she treats us more like family than a teacher.">
<"When she's teaching, she makes sure she's looking at you and your involved. And she's just a real good teacher. She helps you understand everything, and she just a great teacher.">Lacey Valadez\Student
ANDREANNA MARTINEZ SAYS BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS WITH STUDENTS HELPS THEM TO FEEL COMFORTABLE. IN TURN THE STUDENTS PARTICIPATE MORE AND ASK QUESTIONS.
AND HER DESIRE IS TO SEE ALL STUDENTS SUCCEED.
<"It was important that I nominate her, because she could be a real good friend to you and help you.">Gabby Aguillion\Student<"The one thing she does that I'll never forget is the way she teaches. She makes it fun, for all the activities that we do.">Aaron Garza\Student
AND IN HER DAYS ARE BUSY....TEACHING 6 CLASSES A DAY, A TOTAL OF 85 STUDENTS.
BUT SHE DOES IT ALL JOYFULLY, KNOWING THAT SHE IS JUST A SMALL PART OF THE FUTURE SUCESS OF STUDENTS.
<"I get up every day. I love comming to my job. I know where I'm suppose to be, and I feel like I've been called to do this. And so it really empowers me to do my job every day to the fullest.">Andreanna Martinez\Educator Of The Week
