Welcome to a new school year! I am excited to teach all of you and guide you in your proficiency in the Spanish language. During this school year we will be learning through all aspects of the language. This includes, reading, writing, listening, and speaking. I have been teaching at Bethel Middle School since 2011!
I graduated from WestConn with my bachelors in Secondary Education with a focus in Spanish and my Masters in Instructional Technology. I am currently taking courses at Dominican University of California where I am learning about different Spanish speaking countries. The Spanish language has been a part of me since I was born. My parents are Dominican and Spanish was my first language. Spanish is my main form of communication with my parents my extended family. I have 3 beautiful daughters, Aliyana, Alina and Arianny. I enjoy spending time with my husband and daughters, we like to travel, spend time with our extended family, and spend time outdoors. I love to bake, at one point I wanted to open a bakery but teaching is my true calling.
I hope that my students will develop a love for the Spanish language and culture but mostly I hope that they have fun learning Spanish.
