This class is taught in English.

Students will learn to speak, listen, read and write in Spanish in a variety of situations.

I have been a public school teacher for over 16 years in the state of New York teaching middle school and high school Spanish classes. I prepare my students to perform well on state examinations and also teach IB Spanish classes in the International Baccalaureate program.  I also teach English as a Second Language to both children and adults.  For the past two years, I’ve been teaching an increasing number of virtual classes online. I am New York state certified to teach Spanish, Italian and English as a Second Language with a TESOL certification. Languages are my life and my passion. I live in a bilingual household and love bringing the joy of communicating in multiple languages to my students. 

Homework will be assigned for this class only upon request.

45 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.

Many of my lessons include interactive activities for students to complete in the form of Nearpod and Pear Deck lessons.  I utilize EdPuzzle. Kahoot and FlipGrid whenever possible to further students' comprehension and communication skills. To participate in these interactive activities, students click on session links I post in the Zoom chat during our live meetings. No personal information will ever be required of students in order to participate in these activities.
