I have taught Spanish since 2006 mostly in middle school, with a short stint in high school. During that time I have served as the technology and curriculum leader for our school and taught using TPRS as well as traditional materials. What I like most, however, is combining the two techniques and creating my own materials to engage students in meaningful language learning! My stuff may not be cutesy and colorful like some other stores, but the content is solid and fun and geared towards older students!
I am highly interactive, using songs, movement, and stories to engage students. I use tons of technology in my room and enjoy collaborating with others!
