About Me

Experience Summary

How long enjoying my job as a Spanish teacher? 15+ years from Elementary to College level as well as tutoring students privately 1-on-1 or small groups. Teaching and tutoring is a pleasant and memorable experience when I see my students' success becoming in Spanish as a second language. I'm a native Spanish speaker with a bachelor's degree in Spanish Literature and Linguistics. Currently, I'm working on my Master degree focused on the next level: my PhD in Spanish. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced student I can improve your four fundamental skills: speaking, writing, reading, and listening by providing exercises and assignments in order to introduce or reinforce the complex Spanish grammar. Everybody is welcome to my lessons or tutoring sessions. I'm looking forward to teaching/tutoring you the Spanish language and enjoying the Hispanic culture.

Teaching Style

My teaching style is based on a student-centered approach. I'm a facilitator/delegator of my lecture focused on hands-on activities either one-on-one or small groups.

My Hobbies

Reading Dancing Playing baseball
