"¡Hola a todos!

I am a licensed mid-high Spanish teacher with my Masters of Education, 10+ years of Spanish teaching experience and 3 years cumulatively spent living, working and traveling in Latin America. I have taught hundreds of students of all ages and learning styles and offer highly-personalized sessions that target student challenge zones and build on student strengths. Note that I am not a general tutor but specialize in teaching Spanish only, guided by research-based theories and standards of second language pedagogy and acquisition.

My primary goal as a Spanish tutor is to engage students in a unique and exciting learning process that propels them towards academic success and sustained engagement with the Spanish language. Paying attention to the distinct abilities and challenges of each student, I tailor my teaching to accommodate a range of learning styles and needs. While I ground lessons in students’ provided materials, I also supplement from a vast library of my own resources as I know that language proficiency can skyrocket with meaningful connections to the target language.

As a second language Spanish learner myself, I can relate to my students’ Spanish language journeys and bring expertise based on years of refining my teaching methods through public and private school teaching, one-to-one tutoring and most recently, obtaining my MEd one of the top educator programs in the country. Equally important, I have worked and traveled extensively in Latin America and Spain, noting cultural and idiomatic differences useful in empowering students in gaining a more wholesome understanding of Spanish language and culture to apply outside of the classroom, in real world settings.

In all of my sessions, I aim to bring the Spanish language alive and invigorate students to embody their full potential as lifelong learners! Please contact me with any questions or for current availability. I am happy to discuss students' needs in further depth and offer specific ways I can support them." less...
