My Summary

My Experience

In my childcare approach, I prioritize meaningful learning through play. With extensive experience and a diverse skill set spanning language education, physical fitness, and nurturing care, I create engaging environments where children can thrive. Fluent in Spanish, Portuguese, and English, I seamlessly integrate fun activities with cognitive growth. My approach is hands-on, joyful, and dependable, fostering confidence and connection.

Hobbies: Flying kites, Dancing with children on my feet , Reading with dramatization, Hide and Seek just indoors for safety reasons, Feeding birds and Ducks with seeds, Exploration, Pretend Play, Biking, and so on. Being highly active means, that playing outdoors is what I like the most.

Additionally, my swimming skills are excellent! Besides being a swimming teacher, I was a varsity swimmer too.

My BA with major in Spanish, with pathways to teaching, is from Florida Atlantic University, Professional Teaching Certificate from Florida Department education, Exercise and Science Certificate from Florida International Fitness, MA in TESOL from Cornerstone University in Michigan and Physical Education Diploma from Brazil.

Thank you so much for your interest in reading all that!
Warmly,
Elen Costa
