I believe every student learns differently and thatโs great! I hope I can help them learn and grow.
For Spanish: I love learning languages and teaching Spanish! I have a BA in Modern Languages with Spanish as the Concentration. I have been an educator for over 15 years now and aim to be creative and fun for each learner. I like to diversify my teaching styles to accommodate each learner. For Music: I have played the piano since I was eight years old and also taught Music for 14 years; as well as being a member of several music groups as a singer and musician. Being and Music teacher had me heavily involved with all the class plays, set design, directing the schoolโs choir/glee club and drama club as well as other events and programs the school put on. I love to paint as a hobby and love teaching it also.
More about my background: I had a career in Education working in a brick and mortar school for 13 years before starting online teaching in 2020. I have spent each of my years teaching from preschool to high school students in Modern Languages and Music. I received my higher education from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette in Modern Languages. I also studied and received a certificate in Spanish Translation and Interpretation in the Legal and Medical Fields.
