2nd grade - Torres, Monica

About Me:

Hello! My name is Monica Torres. I grew up in and live in Redwood City. I received my bachelor's degree at San Jose State University. This is my 8th year teaching at Garfield Community School and my 6th year teaching 2nd grade. I've also taught 1st and 3rd grade. I spend my leisure time jogging, cycling, reading, and traveling.

In our classroom, I plan on instilling a love for reading and creating a community where students feel safe and supported. I also hope to support students in being confident and independent learners.
