Hello! Welcome to Barnard!
My name is Carmencita Ancora-Boyle. I'm very excited to be an UTK teacher. I'm from Brazil and my first language is Portuguese. I represent the fourth generation of teachers in my family. I’m very proud to be an American Citizen and have Brazilian heritage as well. I'm married to a wonderful husband and am a proud mother to my beautiful and talented 33-year-old daughter who gave birth to my grandson on January 14, 2021! He is almost 4!! His presence has added so much to my and my husband’s life!!
I'm honored to be teaching at Barnard Elementary and to be a part of the Mandarin Chinese program. I have been working in the San Diego Unified School District since 1996. I began my career as an Instructional Aide at Silver Gate Elementary School. Then, I was a 6th grade teacher at Dana Middle School. After that, I came to Barnard, where I have taught all grades. For the last nine years, I have been teaching UTK and I love it!!
My Master’s degrees include Education with Specialization in Technology and E-Learning, Arts with a Specialization in Reading, Cross Culture, and Leadership with Specialization in Administration in Education.
My primary goal as a teacher is to help my students improve their skills in Language Arts and Math. I’m passionate about all children and their learning. I love watching them learn and develop a love of learning. To facilitate their growth and development, it is important for me to develop strong and loving relationships with my students and their families. It is all about LOVE and building strong relationships!!
Kindly,
Mrs. Carmencita Ancora-Boyle
