Welcome! Bienvenidos!
My name is Mrs. Brown, and I am so excited to meet your student!
I have a M.A.T. Master of Arts in teaching (grades P-12) degree with an emphasis in Spanish and a Bachelors of Art in Spanish with a minor in Latin American Studies. I am also a certified TEFL teacher.
Over the past 17 years I have taught students of all ages- preschool, primary, elementary, middle and high school. I even received a teaching scholarship to teach English to students in Spain for 3 years.✏️📓
I have taught in a variety of school settings- public, private, extra classes, camps, substituting, volunteering, homeschooling and online.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family and teaching my children Spanish, making crafts, reading, listening to Taylor Swift’s music, and being outdoors in the sunshine.🎵☀️
All learners are invited to my classroom, and I cannot wait for us to have the best time together!!Reviews
