Hi! My name is Aurora Lee, and I am currently a kindergarten teacher at Richmond Street School in El Segundo. I graduated from the University of California, Irvine (UCI) Master of Arts in Teaching + Credential program for Multiple Subjects in July of 2026 after graduating from Harvard in May of 2025 with a B.A. in Integrative Biology and a minor in Educational Studies.

As a kindergarten teacher, I lead my own classroom, building a class community and collaborating with staff to best support my students. My current teaching practices are reinforced by my UCI MAT program experience, student teaching in elementary schools in Orange County, CA while learning about research-based teaching practices, inquiry-based learning, and integrating disciplines to support student growth. I have always loved teaching and find so much joy in building strong student-teacher relationships that keep me smiling every day in the classroom.

As an educator, I work hard to include all students and create a positive, supportive, and academically challenging learning environment. I hope to continue to support students in achieving their individual goals and spread my love of learning.
