Hello! My name is Ms. Amador, and I am a fourth-grade teacher at Madden Elementary. This will be my eighth year teaching fourth-grade reading, writing, and social studies. I grew up in the Richmond area and attended Fort Bend schools. I graduated from the University of Houston with my Bachelor's in Elementary Education in 2018. After eight years of teaching, I’ve realized the true magic in education lies in creating a warm and welcoming classroom where each student can shine. As an educator, I committed to fostering a love of reading in my students by sharing my enthusiasm for literature. I believe in spreading kindness and working hard. When I’m not teaching, I’m lost in a good book, swimming, traveling, or cuddling with my dog, Zion. I’m ready for a year full of reading, learning, and making memories!
