Taught two sections of Spanish 1 and two sections of Spanish 2. Hillsdale uses the Small Learning Communities (SLC) model for learning. So, in a addition to my Spanish sections, I had the opportunity to work with students as an advisor in one of the SLC's. I love teaching, but moved on to pursue an MBA in an attempt to bring web based learning into schools.
