Experience
I learned to love Hispanic culture as a child in Miami, and spent my college summers in Spain, Ecuador, and Costa Rica. I received my bachelor's degree in Spanish from Wheaton College and a master's in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) from Florida International University. I hold K-12 teaching certificates in Spanish and ESOL, and have taught college, high school, and junior high school students for more than a decade. I like tutoring because it offers the opportunity to assist individual students in achieving their specific goals. I understand that learning a new language is intimidating and overwhelming for some students. Thus, my approach is to break the process into small, easy-to-manage pieces so students are able to experience successes along the way. It is also helpful when students are able to see how the material they're learning and the learning process is relevant for them. On my own time, I like to listen to music and spend time with my friends and family. I'm still an enthusiastic traveler, too!
