I would like to introduce myself, Maria Perez Gali. I am the executive director of Circulo de Amigos. I was born and raised in a beautiful city, Tampico, Mexico.
I hold a bachelor’s degree in education with a major in Social Science. I graduate from the School of Superior Education in Tamaulipas. I really enjoy working in the field of education and being constantly active, exploring, learning, creating, innovating and executing ideas to improve the art of teaching.
I have been in the education field for the last 17 years and working in my own Spanish program since March 2003.
I consider a teacher’s role to be very important since we support the developmental growth and education of the child. I believe that kids should love to learn and be given many opportunities to feel successful in a safe educational and most natural environment to learn and grow. For this reason, I am always involved in the center’s activities and creating wonderful experiences for each child who walks through our doors.
I am very passionate about what I do and I am very serious about my profession! My favorite quote that reflects how much I love my career, and what I do, and inspires me to do more to waken the hearts of others is:
“I am not saying that I am going to change the world, but I guarantee that I will spark the brain that will”.
