Hi, my name is CJ Salvador. This is my first year teaching with NCSSM Summer Accelerator, but my 2nd year being with the program. I moved to North Carolina from Arizona almost 6 years ago. I decided to switch careers and become a teacher because I have always had an interest in teaching and helping others, it felt natural to me. In my career, everyday is different and I am never bored! I truly love being a teacher and doing what I do. I have been teaching for almost 12 years. I have taught grades K-8th grade, coached softball, Yearbook advisor, and I’m very involved with the school in planning events, website, and volunteering. I am looking forward to teaching Career Exploration this summer and working with the NCSSM Summer Program again this summer. It’s going to be a great summer of learning and exploring!
