I worked for three years at the Museum of Tolerance in the education department. Teaching little children about history showed me the amazing power of education and inspired me to get my teaching credential. I love teaching languages because it is the most effective and meaningful way to build bridges between people.i have taught about 2,500 children during my teaching career.

I am a fully credentialed Spanish teacher. I have a BA in Spanish language and literature and I graduated Magna Cum Laude from CALSTATELA. I grew up in Colombia where I attended an international school where I focused my studies in languages and humanities. (German, English as a second language and French)

I have worked in public education for the last 16 years. My first two years I taught Spanish in a public elementary school to 1st and 5th graders. Afterwards I have taught in a public high school pretty much all the Spanish levels (1-4) and the heritage speakers program. I have taught bilingual students, monolingual students, gifted, special needs and English learners.
