Former Spanish Teacher & Author

Alexander D.

I have worked in various fields of education, including teaching in a classroom, leading educational field trips, and private tutoring for many years. My BA is in Spanish with a minor in Sociology, while my M.Ed. is in Adult Education. I also have a background in theater science (stage management), writing, journalism, and communications. I am a published author, so I have a great deal of experience with producing professional, academic, and creative written products.

I am bilingual (English/Spanish) and lived in Mexico for 4 months - where I studied at UDLAP, before returning to complete my degree at GVSU (located in Michigan). I have lived in many states and have provided educational support and tutoring to a wide variety of students, though my focus has always remained on high school, college, and adult learners.

Studied abroad at UDLAP in Mexico for 4 months, graduated Dean's List from GVSU, and was inducted into the National Collegiate Spanish Honors Society (Sigma Delta Pi) for outstanding performance in my major

My personal philosophy is that learning should be enjoyable for both the teacher and the student. I have helped dozens of high school students, college students, and adult learners develop their language skills in both English and Spanish, and would love to work with you to do the same.
