I am a fully bilingual speaker of both Spanish and English. I graduated from Clemson University with a Bachelor's in Spanish. As part of my undergraduates studies, I studied internationally in Argentina, as part of a my degree program at Clemson.
I have tutored both English and Spanish (all aspects--grammar, speaking/presentation, vocabulary) for over ten years--throughout my time as a student.
As your tutor, I will teach you how YOU learn best, so that you can be confident in how you prepare for tests.
