Johaira Buxo and Dr. Vilma Luz Cabán: The Dynamic Dual Language Duo
Manage episode 322364224 series 3255523
Dual Language programs are enrichment programs; they are richly instructional settings for students and, as we learn today, for teaching partners as well. They are learning spaces where students and teachers share, inspire, and feel creative.
Johaira Buxo was born in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. The oldest of six children, she immigrated to the United States when she was only 8 years old. Growing up her dad would always say that education was everything because it is the one thing no one can take from you. She grew up with the understanding that no matter where you come from or your familial status, you can achieve greatness.
Dr. Vilma Luz Cabán is a Dual Language educator, humanitarian researcher, and advocate for women and children. Vilma's main passion has been serving 29 years as a public school educator. This work has ignited personal inquiries related to writing and educational research on topics that directly impact the lives of women and young people. Together they work to ensure their children are bilingual, bi-literate, and bicultural. Their work is centered around putting students first and making sure they can always show their personal best.
