Hello! I'm Laura Giolitti
Special Education & Spanish Teacher and Founder of Early Bilingual
She is a passionate professional with over 19 years of experience in the field of Education. She earned a bachelor's degree in Preschool Education in Venezuela and later completed a Master of Science in Teaching (MST) in Early Childhood Development, Learning, and Intervention at Pace University in New York.
Laura has extensive training in the Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS), Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), Bilingual/ENL Methodology, Montessori Teaching Techniques, American Sign Language (ASL), and Conducting Developmental Evaluations for Children with Special Needs. She has worked with families from diverse cultural backgrounds and with children who have a wide range of diagnoses and learning styles. Currently, she is working toward becoming a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA).
Laura strongly believes in the importance of maintaining Spanish as a primary language for families with Hispanic heritage, as well as promoting Spanish as an additional language in households where another language is primary. Her main goal is to empower parents and caregivers to be active partners in their child's educational journey, recognizing that they are the most valuable support system their children will ever have.
How We Got Started
Early Bilingual was founded with a clear mission: to help preserve and grow the Spanish-speaking population in the United States, particularly among second- and third-generation Hispanic families who have gradually lost Spanish as a primary language. As the second most spoken language in the U.S. and one of the top five languages worldwide, Spanish is a powerful bridge to cultural connection, identity, and opportunity.
