Mr. Cesar Hernandez

"Greetings! I’m Cèsar Hernàndez, and I am honored to join you on your educational journey at Dallas ISD. A proud native of Toluca City, México, I chose to become a teacher because I’m passionate about imparting knowledge, developing skills in my students, and preserving the cultural values of my Hispanic heritage.

I earned my degree in Language Teaching from the Mexican State University. Soon after, I dived headfirst into the world of education, dedicating 10 fulfilling years to shaping young minds in my homeland.

My experience primarily lies in higher education, where I’ve had the opportunity to guide young adults in mastering English in disciplines such as Biology, Law, Accounting, and Psychology, among others.

In 2021, I ventured into remote work as a Spanish-English interpreter, gaining profound insights into both the medical and judicial realms. Now, in 2024, I was fortunate enough to take the next step in my career by accepting an elementary teaching position,marking significant milestone in my journey."

Mr. Adan Arreola

Hello everyone! I'm Adan Arreola, and I'm thrilled to be a part of your learning journey at Dallas ISD. Born in Cd. Juárez, Chihuahua, México, my passion for education isn't merely a personal choice; it’s a profound legacy, deeply rooted within my family, which I proudly uphold.

 
I graduated from the Escuela Normal del Estado de Chihuahua in 2009, obtaining my degree in Elementary Education. Upon graduation, I was quick to immerse myself into the professional world of teaching and devoted the next six rewarding years to nurturing young minds in Mexico.
 
Parallel to pursuing my degree in education, I was also working towards a Bachelor's Degree in Law from Universidad Autónoma de Chihuahua, finally majoring in 2011. This led to an enriching period of three years of practicing family law in Mexico. Yet, it was education that pulled me back, reminding me of my initial mission.
 
In 2015, I completed my Master's degree studies in Education Development, specifically focusing on curriculum development.  That same year I relocated to New Mexico, taking up the challenge of teaching within bilingual programs and expanding my educational experiences even further.
 
Alongside education and law, technology holds a special place in my heart. I find particular enjoyment in programming website apps. Entrepreneurship also intrigues me and is something I consistently foster. On a personal note, I have a deep appreciation for my faith and regularly devote time to attending church.
