This is my eighteenth year at the school and my seventeenth one teaching Spanish. During the current academic year, I will be teaching Spanish 2 and Dual Enrollment Elementary Spanish 1 & 2.  I am really excited to be at The Villages High School and to have been given the opportunity to teach you Spanish, not only my first language but also a language that I love.

Let me tell you how I ended up at The Villages. I was born and raised in Argentina. Once I graduated from high school, I went to college for a Bachelor's Degree in English-Spanish Translation. After obtaining my degree, I decided to come to the States, namely Michigan, in order to attend college. It was there where I met my husband Greg and worked as a full- time translator. Three years went by and we decided to move down to Florida, following my husband's family. Of course, as soon as I saw these beautiful facilities and the great working environment, I realized this was the place where I wanted to grow in my professional career as well as to have my children receive their education. 

After over a decade of teaching, I was finally able to obtain my Master's Degree in teaching Spanish language, culture and history as a foreign language. Studying in Salamanca, Spain was a priceless opportunity of educational growth and enrichment. 

I am really looking forward to getting to know each one of you and learning a lot of Spanish together. Learning a second language will be challenging sometimes, but it will also be rewarding and exciting many other times. You will not only learn a lot of vocabulary and grammar, but you will also achieve some understanding of the Hispanic culture. 

Please, do not hesitate to contact me whenever you have any questions or concerns. Being inquisitive is fundamental when learning a second language.

Let's get to work! ¡A trabajar se ha dicho!
