Jesse
Spanish Tutor in Iowa City
Growing up, I learned Spanish and English simultaneously. I began my educational career in the U.S. at the age of 5 and my family members are native Spanish speakers.

When I began my high school career, I enrolled in an advanced Spanish course that prepared me for the 3 years of Advanced Placement Spanish courses that followed. During my sophomore year, I completed Spanish 4 AP, which enhanced my understanding of grammar and vocab... Read more
