Fourth Grade Team
Andrea Whitlock
Teacher
I was born and raised in small town, rural New Mexico. After high school I moved to Albuquerque to attend UNM, and graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Speech and Hearing Sciences. Before beginning graduate school, I spent six months living in Nicaragua, working with elementary students, which sparked my love and interest in teaching. I returned to UNM to complete a Master’s Degree in Elementary Education. I have endorsements in TESOL, Bilingual Education, and am National Board certified. I have taught for 13 years in the local public schools, primarily teaching 4th and 5th grades. I greatly enjoy working with intermediate grade students, encouraging them to reach their fullest potential, and helping to develop and foster their love of learning. My husband and I have two wonderful children. Our daughter will begin kindergarten this year at NMIS as well. I love spending time with my family, exploring nature, baking, and reading, among other things. I am excited to be joining the NMIS community as a teacher as well as a parent!
