My name is Azgad. The first time I remember choosing my path to becoming a professional educator was in my psychology class sophomore year of high school in 1994. By the time I received my bachelors degree in Latin American Studies from the university of Massachusetts in Amherst, I had already started plans to start my own school abroad the US. Ten years after working as an elementary school teacher with the Austin school district starting in 2001, Pamela who is the founding member of our school and the sweet mother of our children started the paperwork to get Academia Pre-escolar started. If I'm not with our children or working at school or home, I like to be working on script writting!
Her name is Pamela. She is a devoted mother and caregiver. She is an avid tennis player who acquired her teaching degree in early childhood development through primary grades from the university of Texas State at San Marcos. She taught 1st through 3rd grade for Austin Independent School District from 2007-2010. Shortly after that last year she began looking and producing all prerequisites to open her own school to the public. Her patience and kindness along with her endless positive work ethic, is the thread that unifies Academia and all that surround her.
