I have been teaching over fifteen years in Kansas. I have taught pre-K, 6-8, 9-12, and undergraduate level classes. In addition to being a teacher, I am also an executive board member of Kansas World Language Association & the event coordinator of Kansas Association of Teachers of Spanish & Portuguese. I have also been on several committees for the Kansas Department of Education.
I am a laid back world language educator that works hard to create activities and tasks that promote proficiency.
