    Diana Alvarado- Garcia


    Cultural Belonging
    I am Mexican American. Both my
    parents were born in Durango,
    Mexico. I was born in Las Vegas,
    Nevada. I share both ethnicities in
    my life. I am fluent in both
    languages, English and Spanish. I
    celebrate almost every American
    holiday and some Mexican
    holidays. I eat all the delicious
    Mexican plates. I chase the same
    American Dream in this country,
    but I also have the great work
    ethic and spirit of Mexicans.
    Life Experiences
    ❏ I grew up in a pretty stable household. My mom would take my siblings and I to
    school in the morning and she’d have dinner ready by the time school was out. My
    dad would pick us up after school and take care of us while my mom was at work.
    My childhood was pretty much like that until my brother was old enough to take
    care of us.
    ❏ When I entered high school, I started playing soccer and I’ve been playing since. I
    love the sport and it has taught me to become a team player, not just in the field but
    out of the field as well.
    ❏ After high school, I began working and studying and till this day I work and study.
    My second year of college I realized I wanted to become a teacher so I switched my
    major to Elementary Education.
    ❏ In college, I learned a lot of life lessons. I am watching my parents and
    grandparents and the elder people in my life age just like I am. I am cherishing
    each and every moment I have them and being nicer to them and trying my best to
    understand them.
    ❏ During Covid, I lost my grandmother and me and my family are still coping with it.
    It’s not easy, it’s the most difficult hardship in my life but life goes on and all I can
    do is remember her and live everyday for her.
    My Worldview
    ● I’ve been starting to live my life less bitter
    and more understanding. I get mad, sad,
    frustrated, stressed, and depressed, but I
    am learning to accept my feelings and
    understand that it is okay to feel these
    things, but it is not okay to react.
    ● I learned that the only way I can be myself
    is by being nice and generous and helping
    people out when I can.
    ● I believe in dignity and having dignity is
    doing the right thing even when no one is
    looking or judging you. It’s doing the right
    thing for you.
    ● My long term goal is to teach everything I
    learn to my future students and enrich their
    lives and I hope I am happy doing that.
    Cultural Artifacts
    1. I live with my mom and dad and I
    have one older brother and a
    younger sister. My family is the
    greatest gift in my life.

    2. I have 4 doggies in my household


    and they are my babies!

    3. I love to go hiking, play soccer,


    watch anime, and make chocolate
    covered strawberries.

    4. I work as an instructional assistant


    for CCSD and I love my job and I
    can’t wait until I have a classroom
    of my own!
