I am a native Spanish speaker, born and raised in Mexico before moving to the United States at the age of six. My bilingual background has given me a strong understanding of both Spanish and English, as well as the cultural and linguistic differences that can be important when learning Spanish.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish Education from Texas A&M University-Commerce and a Bachelor’s degree in International Business Spanish from the University of Texas at Arlington. My educational background provided me with extensive preparation in Spanish language, grammar, communication, and teaching methodology.
I also have formal classroom teaching experience as a Spanish teacher with Paris Independent School District, where I taught high-school students. During my time as a Spanish teacher, I developed lesson plans based on state and school curriculum requirements and adapted instruction to meet individual student needs. I taught a variety of Spanish skills, including conversational Spanish, grammar, reading, writing, and vocabulary.
My teaching approach is student-centered and adaptable. I believe students learn best when they are given opportunities to use Spanish in practical, meaningful situations while also developing a strong foundation in grammar and vocabulary. I am patient and comfortable adjusting my teaching style based on a student's learning pace, goals, and existing level of Spanish.
I feel comfortable tutoring students at all levels, with a particular interest in working with beginner and intermediate learners. I would be happy to help students develop their conversational skills, pronunciation, vocabulary, reading, writing, and overall confidence using Spanish.
