Hi, I'm my name is Migdalia Bonacic Doric and I am a retired certified Spanish teacher with over 20 years of teaching experience.  I have a B.A. in Psychology/Education  and a Masters in Spanish.  I am proficient and knowledgeable in the art of teaching Spanish to beginners and advance students in grammar and culture.  

Throughout my teaching career I have taught elementary, middle, and high school students with passion and dedication. I acknowledge that learning a second language can be challenging and requires more effort due to the unique complexities of the language.  My teaching approach is to create an environment where each learner will be immersed in the Spanish language.   Students will engage in Spanish conversation, writing and listening activities, TPR stories, videos, and games.  My teaching style will ensure that students experience a friendly and positive learning environment where they feel welcomed, safe, and valued.  Lesson will be strategically developed to meet the needs of all students and diverse learning styles.    

I am married and have two grown children.  I love to travel, make new friends, dance and enjoy listening to music.  Since retirement in 2019, my goal is continue to do what I love most, and that is to teach Spanish to all students.  If you were to ask former students what they remember the most about me, they would probably say it was my energetic personality and passion, great sense of humor, patient, caring, and that she loved to dance and sing with her students!  I am excited about the prospect of meeting you in one of my future classes.
