Certified Tutor
I have been a classroom teacher in public schools for the last 15 years, and I have a wealth of experience with learners in middle and high school. I am a graduate of DePauw University, with a BA in Spanish, and I obtained my Masters in Spanish/Latin American Literature from Hunter College. I love teaching Spanish language to all levels, and I also am passionate and well-versed in literary analysis and Latin American history and culture. My extensive experience with the education system in the US has given me insight into many of the skills required on our standardized tests and in our college essay writing. I believe that all students have an innate desire and ability to learn, and that a true teacher makes it their job to find out how to bridge the gap between a student and the subject material. My favorite moments during tutoring sessions are when students truly connect with the material and we can both learn something new.
