Profe's Resume is here! 

Philosophy of education:

1. We are on a journey together. I will make mistakes and you will make mistakes; however, we will both learn from them and that is to be celebrated!

2. You, not the teacher, are the person with the most control of your learning.

3. All students learn, but at different rates. I will re-teach a concept  even if it has been taught 10 times before; all one has to do is ask. Asking for help is never weakness; it is strength. 

5. Learning the Spanish language is beautiful and rich; it also is a skill that will help you enrich your friendships, career, travel, and life.
