"I am an experienced and energetic Spanish educator with over 25 years of teaching at all levels, from introductory courses to AP Spanish. I have also taught ESL at the college level and bring a unique global perspective from living and working in Spain for more than six years. Throughout my career, I have been recognized as Teacher of the Year, County Teacher of the Year, and STAR Teacher, honors that reflect both my dedication and impact in the classroom.

My teaching style is clear, student-centered, and adaptable to diverse learners. I specialize in breaking down complex concepts into manageable steps, and I often use pre- and post-assessments to personalize each session and prepare students for continued progress. Well-versed in a wide variety of platforms, resources, and textbooks, I tailor my instruction to align with each student’s curriculum and learning goals. Above all, I bring fun, energy, and encouragement to every lesson, helping students not only succeed but also enjoy learning Spanish." less...
