LALC

I m the Founder & Owner of Latin American Language Center www.lalcenter.com which is a School that teaches Spanish since 5th grade to adults. I developed a Trademark curriculum based on Instituto Cervantes methodologies and issued by the International House. In this page, I am selling some sneak peeks of my 15 years of experience. I thought from Kindergarten to 8th grade in a private catholic school and I have taught more than 300 adults per year, for 7 years.

Inductive reasoning, where we guide you to the rule instead of offering all the answers from the beginning. This way the student is more engaged.

Certificate of Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language by International House Organization I was featured in a magazine http://voyagechicago.com/interview/meet-latin-american-language-center-inc-river-north/

I have a bachelor's degree in Business Administration and a Masters in Linguistics, in Spanish.

I moved to Chicago five years ago from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Since I was seventeen I knew I wanted to have my own business, but I didn’t know how or what. I entered college to study Business Administration regardless of my passion in linguistics. I chose this path because in Buenos Aires if you didn’t study finances you wouldn’t be able to pay the bills. Thus, studying finances made sense if I wanted to own a business. I finished college with an immediate job in Business Performance and Budgeting, making good money and saving while living with my parents. I knew two things, I hated my job and my country. My job, because I wasn’t doing anything fulfilling, only preparing reports for the President and board of directors while working full-time. I wanted to leave my country because it is sexist and it is difficult to find people with hope and ambition (I don’t blame them). I knew I wanted a radical change, to move to Australia, New Zealand, Canada (yes, the US was my last option) where the “machismo” isn’t so prevalent.
