Maria Hicks
Spanish and history teacher, San Jose
- 🇺🇸 San Jose, California, United States
- San Jose Girls' School
- 2002 to 2023
- English, Spanish
I came to teaching late, after working as a farmhand, and 21 years later I still can't imagine doing anything else.
Outside the classroom I make terrible puns. Inside it, I wrote a short note to every student at the end of term.
More about Maria
Some of my favorite memories are from the school trip to the old fort, where nothing went to plan and everything turned out fine.
What gifts mean to Maria: Honestly the messages mean more, but a gift would help me buy supplies for my new classroom.
