Mrs. Limaris Swailes
My name is Limaris Swailes and I am Madden’s EL Specialist. ELs are my passion as I was an EL student myself. I was born in Puerto Rico and moved to Texas at the age of 15. This year I begin my 25th year of teaching in FBISD and 19 of those years have been with ELs. I graduated in 1998 from the University of Houston with a Bachelor in Interdisciplinary Studies. I have taught, self contained 2nd and 3rd grade, and ELs. In 2011-2012 I was named Teacher of the Year at my campus and FBISD's ESL Teacher of the Year. Then in 2016-2017, I was named Madden's Teacher of the Year. It was such a humbling experience to be nominated by my colleagues and to represent our campus.
I am a wife and mother of 2 beautiful children. In my spare time I love to read and spend time with my family. I am so proud to be at Madden and am looking forward to helping our second language learners excel academically. If you have any questions regarding our EL program, please contact me.
