Camilla Nagaoka

Global Teacher

Hello everyone!

My name is Camilla Nagaoka. I am originally from São Paulo, Brazil. I moved to Miami, Florida, when I was about 13. I enjoy traveling so much that I have moved around a few times. I have lived in California, USA, Kyoto, Japan, to name a few places. I currently live in Smyrna, Georgia. In 2011, I earned a Bachelor of Arts from Florida International University. 2019 I earned a Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction from Southern New Hampshire University. I started my career in education in 2013 as a teacher in Miami, Florida. I have taught elementary through high school in the USA and abroad.

I am a married mom of 1 energetic girl. Our family enjoys hiking, exploring the great outdoors, grilling on our deck, riding bikes, and fishing. We love to learn about other cultures and celebrate our unique family with a mix of Brazilian, English, Scottish, German, Italian, French, American, and Japanese heritage.

Whenever I have some time for myself, I love to read, try out new cooking/baking recipes, do DYI home improvements, travel, and hike. While still an amateur, I started training and completing some 5k-15k. Teaching is one of my passions, and I look forward to inspiring young minds worldwide. I aim to make my classes interesting, compelling, and educational.
