Experience
I earned my undergraduate degree from the University of Oregon in Spanish language and literature and my graduate degree from Universidad de Valencia in language teaching specializing in Spanish language and literature. I subsequently spend more than a decade in Spain I taught English to students of all ages in various settings such as the classroom, individual tutoring sessions, and after school programs. Studying the language of Spanish in Spain was invaluable for my ability to read and speak the language and I believe it makes me a better teacher and tutor for my students. Some of the courses I tutor include Spanish 1-4, AP Spanish literature and culture, languages, reading, writing, AP Spanish language & culture, creative writing, English, conversational Spanish. My teaching philosophy is to give the students what they need to succeed. This varies greatly from student to student which is why it is vitally important for me get to know the students and discover their learning style and what they're interested in so that I know what to bring into their learning experiences that will fully engage them with the content. Language acquisition is so much easier when you have someone to work with, and I am looking forward to working with you!
