Hello! My name is José Eduardo Alemán and I currently teach 6th grade Math, Science and Robotics. This is my seventh year at King's Environmental STEAM Magnet. I am proud to be part of a community of talented students, parents and educators dedicated to quality public education, sustainability and social justice.

I earned my bachelors degree in Philosophy and a masters in Educational Administration a few years ago. I also received a Multiple Subjects Teaching Credential and a Gifted and Talented Education Specialized Certificate.

I am passionate about teaching and learning, and I care deeply for my students and their families.

I have lived in Cuba, China and Nepal. I currently live in Echo Park with my dog Angelo.

When not at school, I enjoy reading, learning about photography, watching films, and traveling around the world.

If you are a student or a parent, you have probably received information on how to contact me via Schoology. ​
