Hello! Welcome to Ms. Brettl's Biology class! 

I recently transplanted to San Antonio from Pharr, Texas. I have been teaching for thirteen years. 

I earned my Bachelors of Science in Biology at the University of Texas Pan American. Then I completed my Masters in Science Curriculum and Instruction. In 2016, I was privileged to join the Standord University Hollyhock Fellowship. This fellowship provided pivotal teaching pedagogy and practice that utilized what I learned in my Masters program. I do my best to ensure that each student is equitably served in my class room and that their voices are heard. 

I love science and hope to convey that love to my students. 

My aim as a teacher is to prepare students to be critical thinkers and science-literate.
