Welcome to a new school year!

Welcome to my Homepage.  My name is German Loustaunau and I have been a public school teacher for 17 years. Before becoming a teacher I worked as a furniture manufacturer for 12 years. I  was born in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico but raised in Riverside, CA.   I won't divulge my birthday!!!  My educational background includes: B.A. English Literature, B.A. Liberal Studies, M.A. TESOL: Education. Being that I am a first generation college student,  I have had the privilege of graduating from CSU: San Bernardino.  I have taught many English levels:  9-12th grade; E.S.L: Adult Education; MSJC College English.  I enjoy challenging my students on a regular basis and truly want the best outcomes for each student.  More importantly, I encourage my students to instill a unique imagination in terms of their life goals and chances. I believe that all students have the ability to succeed and accomplish their personal and educational goals. I am also the adviser of many clubs on campus: Ballet Folklorico Club, Chess Club, Cultural Club, etc. This year, I am excited to be a part of our new BARR program because of the unique opportunity to collaborate with other teachers to motivate students.    My hobbies include: walking, hiking, weight lifting, and watching various sports, especially college football.  However, I am a passionate musician.  I enjoy picking up a variety of instruments: guitar, keyboard, and my favorite accordion!  

 Welcome to a school year and I look forward to meeting all of you soon!

Mr. Loustaunau
