She strongly believes in bilingual education and hopes to teach in both Spanish and English one day in her own classroom. She hopes to teach either second or third grade in the future. Cynthia has a great love for the ocean and hopes to someday move west where she has several aunts, uncles, cousins, two nieces and a sister. She comes from a large family with a long line of bilingual elementary school teachers. Her greatest influence is her family. Cynthia's strongest beliefs are to accomplish all your goals and dreams.
