Experience

20+ years teaching Middle, High and College Spanish in NY State. My lessons are often SEL infused and designed as SCREEN FREE (low tech but high engagement) for Gen Z and beyond. For me, teaching Spanish is more about empowering them to be GLOBAL CITIZENS and less about teaching them to be tourists. For more information about my teaching style, keep reading...

Teaching style

All of my products represent my personal teaching philosophy- Just be a good human and don't shy away from using Spanish to make connections with people. I believe that we learn best when complex topics are broken down into simple bite size pieces. My notes are minimalistic, yet thorough. I prefer to focus on visual reference of notes (think: widgets, touch screen and apps, but on paper) because it allows for more time for hands on practice and application. Finally, I truly believe that the path to getting our students to connect more deeply with others is to set the technology in the classroom aside. Most of my content is made to print on paper in the hopes that our young digital natives experience interaction with others while growing as a language student. Thank you for taking a moment to read about what I can offer you.
