Karem

Karem is originally from Peru, but I moved to the amazing city of Buenos Aires at a young age, an incredible city where I studied to become a Preschool Teacher with over 8 years of experience working with children in schools and educational communities. The connection with teachers who are truly passionate about their profession motivated me to volunteer at early childhood conferences and pursue further studies. A year ago, I completed my degree in Early Childhood Education, focusing on the care and education of infants from 45 days to 5 years old.

Living in a city that's a hub for art and culture provided me with a myriad of artistic tools, from enjoying music and painting to immersing myself in theater and dance. This allows me to bring a wealth of creative ideas into the classroom, creating an enjoyable learning experience for the children.

I find immense joy in being part of each child's growth journey, and that's what fuels my passion for teaching.
