Matthew Soto
I was born in Bellingham, Washington. I moved to Phoenix when I was 10 years old.
My hobbies include playing Dungeons and Dragons, 3D Printing, and painting gaming miniature models. I have a beautiful family, including a 7-year-old son who attends our wonderful school. Other things that occupy my free time are playing board games with family and friends.
I was brought into the Montessori family by Ms. Michael almost 12 years ago. I began as the Aftercare lead. I enjoyed the job so much that I transitioned into a classroom a year later as an Assistant Teacher.
After 10 years of assisting, I decided to take the leap to becoming a Lead Teacher. Having a hand in guiding the bright future ahead of the students fills me with joy and passion unlike any other challenge.
