Miami English Spot was founded and is directed by Julio Rodriguez Bernier, who has over 20 years experience teaching English as a second language both in the United States and in Colombia.
Rodriguez explains, “Miami English Spot was created to serve the Hispanic community in the U.S., specifically to improve their language in order for them to grow socioeconomically and have more opportunities by speaking English. Our company provides a customized service at competitive prices, and uses an innovative methodology.”

This January, Mr. Ramon Garrigo was named Principal of Doral Middle School (DMS). The previous Principal at DMS, Ms. Marie Caceres, was assigned to Dr. Rolando Espinosa K-8 Center.

This past December our country experienced one of the most horrifying and unimaginable tragedies of modern history. The Connecticut shootings left the whole nation in disbelief and mourning; and our community was no exception to these sentiments. Doral is known for its first-rate schools, so we spoke to some of the principals of the schools in our city to see how they have reacted to these awful events.

Let’s remember the child’s drawings are based on his experiences and what is meaningful to him, as well as on emotional associations.

The Art Shack is not a traditional art academy, it is a space where through art, students have the opportunity to discover themselves in order to better adapt to the environment that surrounds them.

This past month the three K-8 centers of Doral nominated their Teacher of the Year (TOY). All three teachers nominated truly inspire their students and make a difference in our schools.

This award is a very important recognition that State Farm gives to outstanding programs that “promote experiential learning and give students an opportunity to apply what they are learning in the classroom to real problem-solving involvement in their communities with an impact in their achievement and civic responsibility.”
