Carmen Ventura
Lead Teacher
Carmen was born and raised in the Dominican Republic and moved to the United States about 9 years ago. She earned an Associate degree in Early Childhood Education and later a BA in Foreign Language – Spanish in NYC.
Carmen began her journey with Tessa as a summer camp assistant teacher and has since progressed to roles as an assistant teacher and lead teacher during the school year. Her passion for teaching has been a part of her life since childhood. She has a specialisation in working with young children with special needs. She believes that empathy, kindness, and a positive attitude are key to making learning enjoyable and meaningful, and she strives to show her students that they matter and that kindness can open many doors.
In her free time, Carmen enjoys listening to music, reading Spanish books, and dining out with her family.
