Hi! I'm Kim--founder of Pocket Profe by Kim Kennedy, Ph.D.


Welcome to my school! So excited that you're here! I am an award-winning bilingual educator (Spanish/ English) with over 25 years from PK-12 to university levels. I have worked as a bilingual and special education teacher, as well as an instructional coach, literacy specialist, and tenured university professor.

My work spans a deep understanding of emerging bilingual learners’ experiences in public education and addresses ways to differentiate instruction across the content areas for emerging bilingual learners. I have over 20 publications in renowned journals (e.g., Journal of Latinos in Education, Bilingual Research Journal) and books (e.g., Teaching Reading in Spanish; Generating Transworld Pedagogy).

Currently, I support future, new, and experienced Dual Language Bilingual Education (DLBE) educators and their programs. Reach out to find out more about my professional development, workshops, coaching, and more.

Let's make virtual and face-to-face classrooms a place that everyone wants to be, learn, and thrive!
