A writer in Mexico
I lived in Mexico City for ten years. In Mexico, I wrote a book in Spanish, an editorial column for a Mexican newspaper, and songs for a Mexican musical publishing company. I have taught Spanish at a French school in Chicago, a Montessori school, and a Spanish college in Chicago. I have taught Spanish to 1st graders and to college students.

Christina
Fun learning; productive and result guaranteed
I taught myself English back in the early '80s in Beijing, China. When I came to America as a college student in 1988, nobody believed that I was not born and raised in America. This tells you that I know how to study a foreign language on my own. My language skill helped me to finish college and an MBA with honors in America and got me good jobs in corporate America. I used to teach English in China, I have been teaching Chinese at my church, and I tutor Chinese for high school and colle... Read more
