Mrs. Hernandez Coleman

I was born in Mountian View, California, and was raised in Richmond. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I have two grown sons, a daughter-in-law, and three grandchildren. I received my Multiple Subject Teaching Credential from John F. Kennedy University. Before coming to Hillview, I taught in Oakland for four years, in West Contra Costa for nine years, and this will be my 8th year in Pittsburg.

I believe teaching should be a real-world experience where students use their knowledge to become social activists by making sense of the world around them. Furthermore, my role as a teacher is a facilitator of knowledge where students take ownership of their learning and find a passion for becoming life-long learners and critical thinkers. I believe in partnering with parents throughout this journey. My discipline philosophy centers on relationship building to minimize conflicts and gain mutual respect with one another.

I look forward to working with you and your child to meet your scholar's needs in reaching their full potential.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
