If your student misses a class, upon request, I will send you a video with the vocabulary and the grammar or offer a make up class, as I want to make sure students have the correct pronunciation and understand the concepts. **During the last 5 to 10 minutes of class, students will review the vocabulary using interactive games from a website called "Blooket", Educaplay or Wiser.me. Students Do Not need to create an account, just a parent permission to use Blooket.com/play and use a Game ID that I will screen share, or use the link that I will provide in the chat. Only the students that are present in class that day will be allowed to play.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from Universidad Jorge Tadeo Lozano
During my College years, I worked for a language company in Colombia (CIL), I was trained by the owner in a conversational teaching method to teach ESL and Spanish to foreigners. It was a great opportunity to learn hands on how to teach others to communicate in other languages, how to teach children both in English and Spanish and how to be a bridge of knowledge in every subject that I was Certified in. It was such a wonderful experience that I kept working for them for more than 8 years giving me vast training in handling English and Spanish classes, I now use that experience and the fact that I am a native Spanish speaker to share what I know with children and to help them cope with anxiety and stress through mindfulness.
Even though my mayor is in International Business, my passion is working with children and learning along the with them.
