Experience

I received my BA in Spanish and Elementary Education, an endorsement in Kindergarten, and my Master of Arts in Foreign Language Teaching. My language learning has been mixture of classroom instruction, studying abroad, travelling, immersion camp, teaching, and living abroad. I have taught in variety of settings from a bilingual school in Mexico to literacy interventions in the Midwest. Check out the links and images below to learn more!
