I received a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish from Northwestern University. In my undergraduate career I explored a variety of subjects but finally decided upon Spanish after studying in Seville, Spain for a year and absolutely loving it! In Tucson, AZ I grew up speaking some Spanish at home and worked to regain my language skills throughout my schooling. I was able to help solidify my language skills through my foreign studies and immersion experience abroad. Through teaching and volunteering in the U.S. and in Spain, I have tutored both peers and younger students in Language Arts and Spanish since 2007, from Kindergarten to college level. I am invested in my students' success and have developed strong study skills with which to advise each and every student individually. I am increasingly aware of how invaluable one's education is; helping enrich the education of my students makes the job that much more fulfilling. In my spare time I enjoy dancing, traveling, and spending time with family and friends.
