2A: Mrs. Duran & Mrs. Tiner
Hello! My name is Mrs. Duran. I have been teaching in second grade for my entire time here at Lincoln. I spent my first year as a TA and am now entering my fourth year as a Lead. I have taught in one manner or another for over 14 years- 8 years teaching children’s cooking and gardening classes. Cooking and gardening are some of my favorite activities and I am also an avid crafter.
Hi, I’m Mrs. Tiner. I have lived in Arizona for 4 years. I have been working at Lincoln for the past year and a half as Mrs. Duran’s TA. I received my BA in Child Development and an MA in Education. I have a son who is starting Lincoln Prep for 6th grade. I am an animal lover- I have 3 dogs and 3 tortoises.
2B: Ms. Bachman & Mrs. Bushanam
Hello, Second Graders! My name is Ms. Bachman and I’m excited to be one of your teachers this year. I am originally from California but studied and taught overseas in South Korea. I have two boys, both Archway Lincoln students in 1st and 2nd grade. In my free time, I like to read and watch Sci-Fi genre stories.
Hi, I’m Mrs. Bushanam! I have worked with students for over 10 years and to this day it continues to bring me great joy! Outside of school, when I am not spending time with my husband and two awesome kids, my hobbies are baking and painting. I am so excited to work in 2nd grade and cannot wait to get to know you all.
2C: Mrs. Abreu-Rosa & Ms. Pitman
Hello! My name is Mrs. Abreu-Rosa, this is my 5th year of teaching and my second year in second grade. Before teaching at Great Hearts, I taught 7 & 8 grade math and science. Teaching is my passion! I love being able to teach and grow each year with my students. In my free time I love to cook and play board games with my husband.
Hi, my name is Ms. Pitman. I’m originally from Massachusetts but have lived in Arizona for 16 years. I have worked as a paraprofessional and substitute in school for the past 8 years, most of which I was a one-on-one special-ed para. I am excited to be part of the Second Grade team at Great Hearts.
2D: Miss White
Hi, I am Miss White. This will be my second year at Archway Lincoln in second grade. I started as a TA last year, and I am pleased to continue my career as a Lead at such a great school. Arizona has been my home since I was born, and I recently moved back from Colorado where I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Business Administration. I am very excited to get this year started and to help our second graders grow academically, physically, emotionally, and socially.
