About the store

Experience

I have 20 years of experience teaching Spanish at the middle school, high school, and university levels. I have worked with a wide range of learners and know how to design lessons that are engaging and effective in real classrooms. I have served in leadership roles and co-presented at the ACTFL conference on project-based learning, sharing strategies for communicative, student-centered instruction. My work is informed by extensive travel and cultural immersion across Europe, the Caribbean, Mexico, Central and South America.

Teaching style

My teaching is communicative, project-based, and built around authentic materials. Novels, music, film, poetry, and real cultural texts drive my upper-level classes. Students speak, discuss, create, and reflect. Grammar lives inside meaningful context, not on a worksheet.

My own education history

Masters degree in Language Education

Additional biographical information

I was born in Belgium and have lived in the Caribbean, Spain, Italy, and the United States. I speak French, Spanish, and English fluently and have traveled extensively across Latin America and Europe. Languages and culture are at the core of everything I teach and everything I make.
