Hola Hola! We are back for another episode of Conversaciones con Colegas: Season 3. This episode brings on another amazing educator, Alixandria Guzman. Alixandria is currently a middle school science teacher in Arizona. She continually ensures that she is representing her EL students in her classroom curriculum despite the barriers that present themselves through Arizona educational policies.

Our hope and vision for our podcast is to elevate the voices and needs of educators and students, especially those voices which are often silenced or overlooked. Alixandria’s work aligns with LatinXChange because she is advocating for cultural and language representation of her students in her science class. Although Arizona does not currently have a policy on using native language to teach emergent bilinguals, Alixandria uses other strategies to help her students grasp the difficult concepts that come up in science..
