I have been teaching Spanish for 11 years to ages 10 - 18. I am a certified teacher in the state of Pennsylvanie with a B.A. in Spanish Education K-12 from Indiana University of Pennsylvania. I have written and implemented engaging curriculum for schools at the elementary, middle and high school levels.
I believe learning a language should be a fun and positive experience. Learning a language can unlock more health, social and academic benefits that life has to offer. I strive to create an environment that motivates students to see their potential while learning Spanish. I incorporate listening, reading, writing and speaking opportunities into each lesson so students gain confidence using Spanish in a variety of ways.
