¡Hola! I have been teaching Spanish for 8 years. I began at the university level, moved to public, and now teach grades 10-8 at a private world school in Florida.
Because I have so much freedom, I try to utilize a communicative approach with a heavy emphasis on culture and world understanding while also preparing our students for an IB high school Spanish level 3 once they leave 8th grade.

I have a BA in Spanish from Otterbein College in Westerville, Ohio, and an MA in Spanish from University of South Florida in Tampa, Florida. I have studied in Costa Rica and taught English in Cartagena, Colombia, and traveled to many countries throughout world. I love teaching and my overall passion is travel and other cultures, interests I fuse into my daily teaching.
