ALL ABOUT ME

About me…My name is Leonardo Sanchez Palomino.  I’m from Bucaramanga, Santander in Colombia (not Columbia).  I have been a teacher for 15 years: 3 in Woodmont High School, 1 in Pickens Middle School, 5 in Campbell county schools in Virginia (USA) as a Spanish teacher and 5 in my native country as an ESL teacher.   I have a BS degree in accountancy and a master in teaching Spanish as a second language.

I like to play basketball and listen to all kind of music.  I also love to spend time with my family.  I’m married to Marlynde Gamboa, she is also a Spanish teacher.  We have two American daughters: Katherine (18) and Gabriela (14).  I love teaching and sharing my culture and I look forward to an outstanding year at Northwest Middle School.
