Experience

I’ve taught Spanish since 2008 across a wide range of students and settings — from K–12, novice to native speakers, AP classes, and even my own bilingual children (including one with special needs). My experience spans public, inner-city, charter, a private Christian school, and two homeschool co-ops. I aim to bring the best of what I’ve learned from these vastly different contexts into every resource I create. I primarily use comprehensible input methods, while also sharing grammar tips and tricks for students who are eager to dive deeper.

Teaching style

I can be a little “extra” — as the kids say. I aim to be dynamic and engaging while maintaining high standards. In front of a class, I’m playful and “on stage,” always watching for those unplanned teachable moments. I plan thoroughly but also go with the flow, and I’m known for making every minute count.

Awards & shining teacher moments

When I taught AP Spanish for four years, all but one of my students passed the exam. Every time a former student contacts me and thanks me for teaching them Spanish, or shows how they are actively USING Spanish in their life, my heart is warmed!
