Teacher expertise and credentials
Welcome to my profile!
I'm Lindy Avila and I have been teaching Spanish on Outschool for 3 years now and teaching online for 8 years.
A little about me:
I am passionate about helping students to gain a love of new cultures & skills through learning languages and art. I believe that learning about new languages and cultures helps us to be more empathetic, generous, and compassionate human beings.
I received my B.A. in English with a specialization in Teaching ESL from the University of Memphis. I received my TEFL certification while teaching at the University of West Bohemia in the Czech Republic. I also minored in Spanish and studied in Costa Rica. Later I lived in Bogota, Colombia for 4 years teaching Pre-k, English, and Hand Lettering. My Spanish has been heavily influenced by my time in Colombia and my family there!
I have traveled the globe and taught students from every continent! I am passionate about creating a positive learning environment, where every student feels accepted and their opinion is valued. My classroom is inclusive and engages students through curiosity and play! In each class, we have a sharing time so each student may participate as much as they are comfortable.
I believe that children are naturally curious and love to learn. Students will be encouraged to try and fail in my classes, make mistakes, and keep trying! I emphasize progress over perfection. I love to travel with my husband and daughter in my free time, practice yoga, and spend time in nature.
I look forward to teaching your child soon!
