I lived for many years in Caracas, Venezuela, the place I grew up and I went to college to earn a bachelor's degree in Literature. I worked there as a Spanish teacher in a private school for more than 18 years.

I moved to Massachusetts in the Fall of 2002. I have a MA in Hispanic Studies and an ABD as well from Boston College. While studying there, I taught Intermediate Spanish and Adelante (kind of Honors for Intermediate) to Undergrads at BC.

I started teaching High School level during the Fall of 2010. I am currently teaching Spanish 2 and 4 at ACP level and AP Spanish.

I have also participated in AP Spanish readings since 2006. in the last two sessions I have participated as a Table Leader. This participation has given me valuable information about the AP Spanish exam, information that has help me to develop useful class plans to move my students to perform well on those exams.
