Mother and wife I have been blessed with a wonderful husband of 17 years and a loving 11 year old son. I teach my students as I am teaching my son Italian with love, patience and perseverance. I demonstrate language learning via natural approach, repetition and reality based scenarios.
I utilize, research and apply a wide variety of resources from our textbooks, Realidades for level 2 to Continuemos in level 5, from authentic news articles, videos and literature from Spain and South America, to online practice activities as well as online textbooks. I have taken extensive time to analyze and search for materials that facilitate the language learning. Now, it is all up to the individual to demonstrate effort Intelligence plus character--that is the goal of true education.Martin Luther King, Jr.
