Adina Martin

With 24 years of experience, Mrs. Martin is a first-year teacher for our Anímate Summer Academy Being half-Panamanian, she wanted to give back to the Afro-Latina community. She discovered our job posting on Indeed, and had not heard of LaAmistad. She wants to create Spanish-speaking opportunities for children outside of the home in order to acquire knowledge and vocabulary.
