Experience
I have 25 years of teaching Spanish! I love to integrate real life cultural and comprehensible concepts into my lessons. I use the fluency matters comprehensible novels in my lessons. I have attended comprehensible input conferences and I am trained in the teaching methodology.
Teaching style
I believe in teaching proficiency through Comprehensible Input rather than the standard grammar-heavy language class. These research-based language acquisition strategies use a mixture of reading and storytelling to help you naturally acquire a foreign language. I teach with a focus on immersion with comprehensible input and not grammar since that is not how language is naturally acquired. I create fun and engaging activities to reinforce the Fluency Matters novels. These activities are designed to keep students in the target language. Some fun traditional games that have created to supplement fluency matters books are Tic-Tac-Toe, Connect 4, Sorry, Snakes and Ladders and Pictionary. Students will develop skills in the areas of listening, speaking and reading while having fun discussing the novels in the target language.
My own education history
I have been teaching Spanish for the past 25 years. I have my masters in Education. I love teaching about the Spanish culture and language.
Additional biographical information
I studied abroad in Spain when I was in college. I acquired the love and passion for the Spanish people during my studies abroad. I take yearly trips to Spain to help my students experience first hand the Spanish people and culture.
