Thank you for taking the time to review my teaching portfolio! My name is Samantha Donskey and I currently hold a Preliminary Multiple Subject Teaching Credential (SB2042) with AB1059 English Learner Authorization and a Master of Arts in Teaching degree from the University of California, Irvine (UCI). I am based in Southern California and have learned so much student teaching in both first and third grade! UCI’s comprehensive program, as well as my prior experiences, provided me with the confidence and qualifications required to prepare students with the skills needed to excel in our rapidly changing world. 

​

As an educator, I believe in creating safe, yet challenging spaces where students feel valued and accepted for their unique strengths, interests, and backgrounds. I am looking forward to caring for the hearts and minds of all students that enter my classroom!
