"I am a certified bilingual American History, World History, Government, and Spanish language teacher and tutor with more than 25 years of experience. As a graduate of Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service, I have a rock-solid foundation in American history, Geography, International Politics, and Latin American Studies, including the Spanish language that will amplify your research papers and boost your AP score.

I work with you to bolster your specific learning needs, either through supplementing by means of direct instruction or the Socratic method, to reach those "aha!" moments and translate them to your research paper. Each lesson will target and grow your mastery of the content while also activating your ability to think critically.

I am well versed in analyzing the many ways history is recorded, such as through the arts, photography, diary entries, storytelling, maps, advertisements, documentaries as well as official government speeches, letters, interviews, and reports. Our Spanish lessons can cover conversational beginnings all the way to verse by verse deconstruction of Nicolas Guillen's poetry.

I aim to help you find the core connections between primary source documents detailing the lives of people and their experiences, their ideas and struggles as they interact with their own community and outside communities, governmental institutions, economic forces, and Mother Nature.

Reach out to set up a time for lessons if you would like to approach Spanish language and Social Studies learning from deep-seeded, beauty-inspired curiosity. Together, we can make history come to life, whether presented in your Spanish or History class. Let's break it down together!" less...
