Fourth & Fifth Grade Spanish Teacher
Passionate about literature and science, Maestra Denice brings curiosity, cultural connection, and joy to learning every day.
Maestra Denice brings a deep love of learning, language, and culture to her classroom. Originally from the Dominican Republic, she moved to Camas in 2005 and has been an active member of the Spanish With Sarah community ever since.
She is especially passionate about teaching literature and science, and each year she looks forward to sharing that enthusiasm with her students. Maestra Denice believes that the moment a child realizes they have learned something new is one of the most rewarding parts of teaching, and she finds great joy in fostering those moments of discovery.
As a parent of two daughters, Marisol and Isabella, who attended Spanish With Sarah, Maestra Denice understands firsthand the value of bilingual education and cultural immersion. She and her husband, Andy, deeply appreciate the opportunity for children to grow academically while being exposed to multiple languages and cultures.
Maestra Denice feels grateful to be part of the Spanish With Sarah family and is dedicated to creating a classroom environment where students feel supported, curious, and confident as learners.
