Raquel Carolina Paiva

Taught geography at Contagem Academy

🇧🇷 Contagem, Minas Gerais, Brazil
Contagem Academy
1979 to 2017
Portuguese

I taught geography and computer science at Contagem Academy, Contagem. I learned every name in the first week. Over the years I had 1,820 students pass through my room. A few of them became teachers themselves, which still makes me smile. I'm still learning every day.

More about Raquel

Some of my favorite memories are from the school trip to the capital, where nothing went to plan and everything turned out fine.

What gifts mean to Raquel: Honestly the messages mean more, but a gift would help me buy supplies for my new classroom.
