Although I grew up with a Hispanic background, I didn't start learning Spanish until my freshman year of high school. I immediately developed a love for the language and culture, and started deepening this love and understanding by traveling. I have travelled to Spain, Mexico, the Dominican Republic, and Nicaragua, and I've lived in Spain and Costa Rica. I believe the best way to learn a language is by traveling to a country where it is spoken. However, I have a lot to offer to help students... Read more

I spent several weeks training with them, but they did not speak any English, and I didn't speak Japanese. We communicated through gestures, and while the experience was amazing, I always felt I could have gotten so much more from it if we had been able to communicate better. But, from our clumsy hand signals, and one or two awkward... Read more
