¡Bienvenidos!
I am very excited to be part of the Saint John’s School staff and serve as a Spanish Teacher
As a native Spanish speaker, sharing the love for my language and culture has become my passion.
Learning a new language can be intimidating but I believe that a good cultural and enthusiastic approach can allow students to keep them interested and motivated in acquiring language skills in learning Spanish.
Professional Background
I graduated from college with a Bachelor degree in Administration at the Nueva Esparta University in Caracas, Venezuela. Then, I continued my English studies at Saint Thomas University in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
During the last few years, I have gained considerable experience as a teacher and language specialist teaching multiple levels ranging from Pre-K to 8 and working on before and after school Spanish programs.
This is my fifth year teaching Spanish and my 2nd year teaching at Saint John’s School.
In my free time I enjoy spending time with my family.
Philosophy of education
I believe that a good education shapes not only minds, but hearts as well.
And that by learning a different language and traditions can make students more cultural.
I love teaching Spanish and I try to bring much of my culture into the classroom as possible.
I want my students to learn about the different cultures and traditions in our class while having fun learning a new language.
My greatest joy is hearing students tell me that they were able to use what we learned in class and talked to somebody in Spanish!
