Experience

I have 15 years of experience teaching Spanish at the secondary level (middle and high school). I have a Bachelors of Art in Spanish and a Masters of Art in Teaching Spanish. I studied abroad in Spain as an undergraduate and also later on in a post-graduate program. I have multiple years of experience creating and implementing Comprehensible Input (CI) based lessons in my classroom. I have always loved creating original resources to use with my students.

Teaching style

I love using stories to teach Spanish. I have seen great gains in student language acquisition from using CI methods in the classroom. I also have a passion for traveling (especially to Spanish-speaking countries) and for learning about different cultures. I incorporate cultural exploration into my lessons whenever possible.
