About Me
I was born and raised in Guatemala until the age of fifteen; therefore, Spanish is my native language. I became a Spanish tutor while attending High School in New York at the age of sixteen and throughout College. I now have over 35 years of tutoring experience. I have tutored all levels of Spanish (both children and adults). I love teaching, and I mostly love seeing the progress and success of my students. I am passionate about teaching; I have made it my life's goal to teach our children as well as possible.
