Meet Your Teachers

Hello My Name Is...

Mrs. Nguyen


Hello! I'm Mrs. Nguyen, and I'll be the middle grades math teacher this year! This is my first year teaching at NLAE, and I look forward to working with you this year! This will be my 8th year teaching, having taught at various schools in Georgia prior to coming here. Outside of teaching, I like to read, eat lots of yummy food, walk trails, and spend time with my family. I'm excited for this upcoming school year, and let's make this a great school year!

Hey y’all! This will be my third year teaching as well as my third year here at New Life Academy. I will be teaching Science from 6th to 8th grade. I graduated from the University of South Carolina in 2021 (go Gamecocks) with my Bachelors of Science in Middle level Education. Outside of class though, I love drawing, playing my guitar or ukulele, or finding some good places to eat. Fun fact, I have both my bunions removed! I cannot wait to see all of your smiling faces and teaching the coolest kids the coolest subject ever!

Mr. Luciano

It's me yall

Hey there! My name is Mr. Luciano and I'm the Social Studies teacher for 6th - 8th grade. I graduated from University of North Georgia with a BA in History and a teacher certification for Secondary History Education. I'm really looking forward to meeting you and teaching you this year! I know social studies tends to get a bad reputation as just remembering names & dates but I'd like to show you it's so much more than that. Hopefully this year I can make your appreciation of history grow. As for my hobbies I like to cook, garden, read, run and play old school arcade games. Let's make this school year great together!

Hello everyone! I am the middle school ELA teacher. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Social Science with a concentration in Education, a Master's in Education, and a Master's in Psychology. I have worked in the field of education for 15 years. I started working at New Life during the 2014-2015 school year and I am excited to be back for another year of teaching, learning, and exploring. I have been married for 5 1/2 years. I also have 9 children in total and 3 are at home (15 years old, 8 years old, & 4 years old). I enjoy going to the movie theater, relaxing at the spa, and spending time with my husband and children. I look forward to helping our middle school learners explore the world of Language Arts!

Hello everyone! I am extremely excited to be back at New Life for my 15th year! Many of you have had me last year for Chinese and I am thrilled to be back in the middle grades continuing your education in both the Chinese culture and the language. When I'm not in teacher mode, I can be seen cheering on my Atlanta teams (Falcons, Braves, United, Hawks, and Georgia Tech) and doing traditional Chinese dancing. :) I'm excited and looking forward to another great year!
