April Nill Boitano

I am a passionate reading and English Language Arts educator with over 14 years of experience, including the past six years in Florida as an intensive reading, ELA, and exceptional student education teacher. Helping students discover their confidence and ability as readers is truly the heart of my work. I am trained in both the Wilson Reading System and EBLI (Evidence-Based Literacy Instruction), which allows me to meet each child exactly where they are and guide them forward with care and intention. I believe strongly in teaching in small groups of no more than five students, where meaningful individual attention makes a powerful difference. This setting allows me to identify learning gaps quickly and provide targeted support to help students build strong, lasting skills. I especially love working with struggling readers and guiding them through the steady process of growth—making small, intentional adjustments that help them recognize patterns, master them, and ultimately read with confidence and fluency. At Best Brains Learning Center, it brings me so much joy to see young learners grow into confident readers and expressive writers. My goal is to create a warm, engaging environment where every student feels supported, capable, and excited to learn.

Hello, my name is Eden Bejarano. I have been a teacher for 19 years. During those years I have taught English, Math, Science, and History. I have taught prek-8th grade, but most of my time as a teacher has been in elementary school.

I love making positive connections and seeing student progress. Each child is different and I work hard to meet their needs,  see growth,  and have fun while doing it.
