Gaby Jones

Gaby Jones was a bilingual elementary educator for 15 years in Texas. She recently completed her Translation Skills coursework at Austin Community College and is currently pursuing a Master of Library Science Degree at Texas Woman’s University. Originally from Mexico, she is passionate about promoting Spanish literacy and ensuring students have access to quality materials in their native language. She currently reviews translations of elementary curriculum materials because she knows first hand that acquiring a second language takes time and the learning of Math and other subjects does not have to be "paused" until a child is proficient in that language. Additionally, quality translations also ensure that every member of the family is able to participate in the learning process.
