I am a Spanish teacher at a local high school in Connecticut. I love Spanish and I love teaching. Both of my parents were teachers, so I knew at a young age that I, too, would be an educator. I originally wanted to be an English teacher. Then I discovered my love for Spanish. Now, I have the best of both worlds: I teach Spanish but I also get to teach grammar, since most students have learn about English grammar when they take a second language course. Since I am a native English-speaker who learned Spanish as a second language, I feel I have the necessary compassion and understanding to better help students learn Spanish as a second language.
