Jaclyn Arencibia

Global Teacher

Greetings! My name is Jaclyn Arencibia, and I’m thrilled to be your Global Educator at Academica International Studies. Even though I am a proud Miami native, I graduated from Trinity College in Hartford, CT, with a B.S. in Psychology and a minor in Hispanic Studies. After moving back to my local roots, I received an M.S. in Curriculum and Instruction from Florida International University. Currently, my partner and I live in Homestead, FL, where we get to spend quality time with our son and daughter.

My career in education formally began in 2017, with 4th-grade students, and expanded when I spent 6 years teaching 6th-grade English Language Arts. However, since my youth, I have always had a passion for teaching and mentoring students. In my free time, I enjoy reading nonfiction, writing, traveling to new places, and being immersed in the culture. I’m genuinely looking forward to meeting each student and sharing in this virtual learning experience together!
