"I am a dedicated Spanish and English teacher with nine years of experience working with both high school and middle school students. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to support learners at different stages of their academic journeys, helping them build confidence in language, literacy, and critical thinking. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish from Sacramento State University and a Master of Arts in Secondary Education from San Francisco State University, which have provided me with a strong academic foundation and effective instructional strategies for diverse classrooms.

In addition to my classroom experience, I have spent multiple years working as a tutor, supporting students one-on-one and in small groups. My approach to tutoring is creative, engaging, and fun because I believe students learn best when they feel motivated and comfortable taking risks. I strive to make learning meaningful by adapting lessons to each student’s needs, interests, and learning style, while maintaining high expectations. Whether teaching Spanish or English, my goal is always to help students grow academically and develop a lasting confidence in their abilities." less...
