Experience
I am an enthusiastic, creative, and passionate educator and tutor, and a native Spanish speaker as well. I have more than thirteen years of experience as a Spanish teacher for kids two years old to high school students in private schools in Dallas, Plano, and Allen TX. I also have many years of experience as a tutor for students of the Allen ISD, and adults as well. I am currently a high school part-time Spanish teacher, in a private school in Plano, TX. In the afternoons I work independently as a tutor. Before coming to the United States, I worked for twenty two years as an executive in the business world in my native Colombia. I have been a teacher for more than thirteen years. I chose to be a teacher because I believe becoming a life-long learner is a way to a happy and productive life. I like to share my excitement for learning with children. Since deciding to become a teacher, I have been totally dedicated in learning successful teaching strategies that provides the best knowledge to my students. For me, teaching is a special mission, and I have worked very hard to make a unique contribution in my students’ life. I can see through my students the leaders of the future. I help them to discover their potential, their uniqueness that can only be reached with an “I can do” attitude. I like to make children feel recognized and rewarded for being and doing their best. I will find out their motivations, their learning style, I will praise their strengths; I will work hard on their weaknesses, even if it requires extra-time on my part. It is my belief that creating a good relationship with children, showing a sincere interest in their lives, contribute to establish an environment of mutual respect. I never give up on a student. My reward will come when I can see the final result. Teaching Spanish is my passion, being a native speaker, and bilingual, allows me to generate comprehensible ways and strategies for learning, so children encounter that learning Spanish is fun and easy to learn.
