Marion E. Howell is a dedicated New York City public school educator who has been teaching since 2011. She began her career as a high school Social Studies teacher in the South Bronx, later teaching in Brooklyn for four years before continuing her work in Queens. Over the course of 12 years in Social Studies classrooms, she developed a strong commitment to helping students engage with history through meaningful, accessible instruction.
She currently serves as a Special Education teacher at George Washington Carver High School in Queens, where she provides Integrated Co-Teaching (ICT) support in Social Studies classes. In this role, she collaborates closely with teachers to ensure that all students, including those with diverse learning needs, can access and succeed in rigorous academic content. Her teaching philosophy is rooted in the belief that every student can learn, and that it is the educator's responsibility to make that learning possible for all.
Originally from Guyana, Howell immigrated to the United States at the age of nine and grew up in East New York, Brooklyn. Her personal journey and professional experiences continue to shape her commitment to equity, inclusion, and culturally responsive teaching across New York City classrooms.
