"My name is Maria but my family, friends and students call me Lola.

I'm from Ecuador and I lived in Chile for almost 10 years.

I came to Ohio in 2015 and I live here with my husband and my two dogs Copper and Pepa.

I'm a Preschool Teacher in Newark, Ohio andI love it!

I have the Twos Classroom (2 years old) and teaching spanish to kids at so young age is super fun. They learn so fast while singing songs and playing with fun activities and conversations.

In 2018 I got a CDA (Child Development Associate) and I've been working with kids for almost 3 years now.

Previously I worked with preschoolers in Ecuador for 4 years.

Since I moved here to Ohio I've been helping people with translation in Spanish.

And I think that one of my most relevant skills is that my native Spanish has less slang because I lived in two very different countries. So you will learn in a way that you can go to any Hispanic country and they will understand you perfectly." less...
