Profe Paulete joined Parker School in 2021 after working at Atlanta International School as a substitute teacher, Kona Pacific as an Educational Assistant, and Oakhurst Cooperative Preschool as a preschool teacher. Profe Paulete has a bachelor of arts degree from Agnes Scott College in Anthropology/Sociology with a minor in Spanish and a master of arts in teaching from Georgia State University with a specialization in English as a Second Language. She lived and studied in Havana, Cuba in 2014, backpacked around Central and South America as a student and intern for a study abroad organization The Traveling School, as well as travelled through Spain multiple times for work and pleasure. Profe Paulete grew up in Eugene, Oregon but is originally from Atlanta, Georgia which served as her home base for the last decade, until she moved to Hawai’i Island in 2020. She enjoys relaxing in nature and exploring the island and likes to spend half of her time in the water swimming, snorkeling and freediving. Profe Paulete is happy to be a part of the supportive and uplifting Parker School community and is inspired by Bell Hooks quote, “To teach in a manner that respects and cares for the souls of our students is essential if we are to provide the necessary conditions where learning can most deeply and intimately begin.”
