Ms. Narineh Karamanoukian

Hello, my name is Narineh Karamanoukian.  I am a passionate and dedicated educator at Chamlian Armenian School with over 21 years of teaching experience. I have worked with students from kindergarten through middle school, but my heart has always belonged to first grade. From  a young age, I knew I was destined to be a teacher, a calling deeply rooted in my family. My mother served as a middle school teacher for 33 years, and my brother currently teaches high school, continuing our family's proud tradition in education.

 

I believe that both academic preparation and a wealth of  hands-on experience benefit students in their learning. I strive to create a warm, welcoming environment where students feel safe, loved and inspired to reach their highest potential. For me, the classroom is more than just a place to learn, it's a family where each child is valued.

 

I find deep joy in shaping young minds and watching students grow academically, socially, and emotionally. It is my unwavering commitment to make my classroom a place where lifelong learning begins.
