"I am a native Spanish speaker, born and raised on the border towns of El Paso, TX and Juarez, Mexico, and am a graduate from the University of Texas at El Paso with a BA in Spanish, and a minor in translation. I graduated with a 3.83, and was known to be responsible and studious. I have experience as a high school Spanish teacher, as well as an independent contractor, translating, interpreting, and tutoring English, Spanish, phonetics, and Bible classes. I have taught adults and children alike, from the very beginner stages up to conversational. I thoroughly enjoy the challenge of finding out ways that you learn best. I love working with people and teaching through conversation and communication, and firmly believe in the concept that having fun and working hard can be simultaneous activities. This platform allows me to meet all kinds of people and I love sharing knowledge, both in teaching and learning contexts - I believe we are always learning new things from everyone. Hope to meet you someday!" less...
