Hello! My name is Jason and I'm a 24 year old graduate of the University of Wisconsin-River Falls. I've been studying Spanish for about 13 years now and it is something I am very passionate about. I truly think that being bilingual can help just about any person in almost any career that they might choose to have or just to broaden your horizons a bit and learn more about another culture.
I tested into the highest Spanish level possible for a Freshman at UW-RF, took almost every Spanish class offered during my 5 years there and had a 3.30 GPA in my Major classes. I've studied Spanish and Latin American history and literature in both English and Spanish classes, Spanish Phonetics and traveled to Mexico twice, Belize and Guatemala for additional learning opportunities.
I also managed a Mexican restaurant for 2 years and was able to hone my speaking, writing and listening skills further by using what I had learned in the classroom in real world situations and interacting with my Latino employees on a daily basis.
I don't have any previous formal tutoring experience but everyone has to start somewhere and I'm very excited about this opportunity. I really do enjoy helping people discover the amazing world of learning another language. Thank you for considering me as your tutor!
