Additional biographical information

I have a Spanish mom and German Dad. I learnt to speak Spanish as a child and continued with it in High school and university. I was working in the private sector for 11 years, as Hotel Front Office Manager but I had a major life change when my first daughter was born. So now I am pleased to be able to teach in English and in Spanish: to help preserve my English Language Learner's native language and culture and also teach them English, and to eventually help them become successful and productive citizens. P.S. I love my job - teaching is a calling!!
