My name is Rachel Ganzer and I am so excited to be a part of your language learning journey! This is my 11th year teaching Spanish and my 8th year at Stagg High School. I love being a part of the Charger Community and I consider myself lucky to work in one of the best departments in the whole school! I attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and while there I had the opportunity to study abroad in Granada Spain where I really got to experience the Spanish language and culture. I also have my Master's Degree in English Language Learning and Literacy from Lewis University. I love getting to share the Spanish language in a relaxed, fun, and engaging classroom!
When I am not at school, I love to cook, stay active, and explore with my husband and our two dogs Bonnie and Charlie!
