Congratulations to
Life-Changing Teaching Award Nominee
GLADYS RICARDO
SPRING EARLY COLLEGE ACADEMY
STUDENT RECOGNITION STORY
What makes Mrs. Ricardo awesome is that she speaks Spanish, sometimes she makes jokes, and she helps us a lot. One of the things that makes me excited about attending her class is that my friends are there, and we can help each other with the classes we need to work on. Mrs. Ricardo would always check my classes to see if I was missing any assignments. I feel confident when they tell their awkard moments in school. My teacher has supported me both inside and outside of the classroom in many ways. In class, they explain the material clearly, give helpful examples, and always make time to answer my questions. If I’m struggling, they check in with me and offer extra help so I don’t fall behind. They encourage me to participate, which has made me more confident speaking up and sharing my ideas.
