Welcome to my Spanish class!
Hello everyone, welcome to my Spanish class. I am very happy that you are here and considering learning with me this beautiful language. I am originally from Argentina, so I speak native Spanish. I also grew up in the United States, which has allowed me to earn college and high school degrees in both countries.
I have a strong background in psychology, which helps me a lot when it comes to teaching and applying effective strategies. I have experience teaching children as young as three years old to teenagers. This class is designed for students from the age of ten and up, as my strategies and best results have shown.
I have taught all types of classes, conversational, group and private classes. I have also taken personalized requests and made them happen. In my classes we paint, talk, play games, sing and get to know different cultures of the Spanish-speaking world. The most important thing is that we are all friends in a positive and ready to learn environment.
Don't hesitate to leave me a message for anything you need. Being a teacher over the years has not only filled my heart, but has also given me the experience of getting to know my students on a deeper level. I love what I do and it makes me very happy.
