My name is Clara. I am a fifth and sixth grade Reading/ELA (English Language Arts) teacher at Metro Catholic School in Cleveland. I graduated from The Ohio State University in May of 2017 with a degree in Middle Childhood Education. I am licensed by the state of Ohio to teach grades four through 9, Social Studies and ELA. Throughout my time at Ohio State I gained valuable experience working with students both inside and outside the classroom by working at the YMCA of Central Ohio as a lead teacher, volunteering to work with students, and by completing placements in classrooms for my program.
