BEHIND THE SCREEN[S]
Where are you from?
I was raised in the United States, but moved to Spain for University where I then lived and worked for ten years before moving to Italy, where I am currently based.
Cool, so you speak other languages?
Yes, I speak Spanish and Italian. This really helps me to identify with my students and help them through the steps of the learning process. Living and working in different countries has contributed to my growth as a teacher in so many ways. Learning a language is not just about studying grammar and vocabulary, it's about understanding the culture reflected in the language.
What did you study?
I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Spanish Language and Literature, and went back to university a few years later to get my Primary Teaching Degree after discovering my love for teaching. My professional experience has done the rest, and as a teacher I never stop learning.
I started teaching English as a freelancer in 2007. I worked in school settings teaching children and teens from 2014-2020, and then I opened my own teaching business in 2021.
