Seeking opportunities to spread my love of English and Spanish!
I have always had one foot in the education sphere, whether it's being a student myself, working with kids in daycare as an assistant or being responsible for a class of my own. Recently, I had the wonderful opportunity to use my degrees in English literature and Spanish to teach second grade at a bilingual school located in the beautiful green mountains of Matagalpa, Nicaragua. This was a unique experience due to the fact that this was the school's first year. Therefore, my classroom was rat... Read more

The Right Personal Connection Can Lead to the Right Brain Connections
Allow me to quickly describe my own educational history. I attended Santa Clara University directly out of high school because Dad, my adoptive father, thought I'd make a good engineer like himself; this was mostly because I had a superior aptitude for math and was pretty good at drawing and computer programming, at least for that time. I attended school there for a year and a term before I began experiencing health problems--since resolved--and tried to switch to performing arts, and my pa... Read more
