Johanna: Alsip tutor

Certified Tutor

My love for the Spanish language is second nature, due to both my parents traveling separately from Mexico to the United States, gaining employment and eventual citizenship. I grew up speaking Spanish in my home and it is my first language.

Although I am a Navy veteran and have a background in Nuclear Technology, my passion is to teach, and translate Spanish. I have a Master's in Education from Grand Canyon University, and I enjoy teaching the language that I love.

Serving as an interpreter for my church has allowed me to share my language in worship and the Word of God, which has been an honor.

I have taught all levels of the Spanish language as well as creating and implementing my own
Advanced Placement curriculum in my classroom.

I enjoy working individually with students and helping them feel confident and gain proficiency in their language learning.

I'm looking forward to working with you!
