1st Grade
Hello! My name is Marianne Magisa, and I am honored to be teaching 1st Grade this school year. With nearly 15 years of teaching experience, a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education, and a Master of Arts in Educational Management (2018), I have dedicated my career to nurturing young learners. I also hold a 7-year Professional Teaching License in the United States, which has opened opportunities for me to grow both as an educator and as a lifelong learner.
This is my first year at Marrama, and I am truly excited to begin this journey with my students and their families. My teaching philosophy is rooted in the belief that education should inspire curiosity, build confidence, and cultivate kindness, empowering children to become critical thinkers and compassionate individuals. What I love most about my job is witnessing those “lightbulb moments” when students discover new ideas and gain confidence in themselves.
Beyond the classroom, I enjoy traveling and spending time with friends, as I believe experiencing the world and building relationships enriches both my personal life and my teaching. I look forward to creating a fun, collaborative, and inspiring learning environment this school year!
