As a certified Spanish teacher with 8 years of high school classroom experience, I specialize in moving students from rote memorization to true linguistic confidence. I hold a B.A. in Spanish Language and Literature and Psychology, a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT), and am currently obtaining my 6th year leadership certificate in Educational Leadership with a concentration in Social Emotional Learning (SEL). This unique background allows me to support not only a student’s academic proficiency but also their confidence and emotional resilience. My teaching approach is communicative and student-centered; I utilize scaffolded instruction to break down complex grammar while incorporating authentic cultural resources to keep students engaged. Whether working one on one or in a full classroom setting, I have successfully helped students ranging from absolute beginners to AP Spanish candidates increase their proficiency and improve their course grades. My goal is to create a supportive, SEL informed environment where students feel empowered to become fluent, lifelong speakers.
