Ms. Myrna Martinez

Hola,

As a former La Sierra High School student it, is needless to say that I consider La Sierra High School to be my second home.  I have been teaching Spanish at La Sierra since 2004 and I am also the advisor of the Spanish Honor Society.  I completed a Bachelor of Arts degree and Single Subject Credential in Spanish Language, Spanish Literature and Liberal Studies at California State University, San Bernardino.  I received a Masters Degree in Curriculum and Instruction at Concordia University of Irvine.  As a teacher of World Languages, it is my belief that learning a language helps us to understand others through studying various cultures, practices and perspectives.  I enjoy teaching students about the different cultures of the Spanish Speaking world.  I encourage Spanish Speaking students to continue to grow in their Spanish language development so that all students can be biliterate individuals who are competitive and marketable in the work force.
