My immersion in a variety of cultures, in addition to experience teaching abroad, have instilled in me a passion for learning, teaching, and traveling. While in Colombia, I recently taught at Universidad Del Quindio with Minga House, doing an English Immersion Program, traing and observing public school teachers. I taught one year at Universidad del Norte, in the Instituto de Idiomas. I have experience teaching in university, high school, and primary school, and am bilingual in Spanish and English. I have been teaching in Colombia since 2017. Teaching English to international students and teaching in various contexts in Colombia, has enabled me to adapt to and collaborate with learners from different languages, age groups, and cultural backgrounds. These experiences have pushed me to be creative and innovative in my pedagogical approach. I have learned to apply pedagogical theories to real life experiences that I have encountered, so that I am better able to adapt to various contexts and situations and encourage my students to do the same in their own unique style. I have a Master's of Arts in Applied Linguistics: TESOL from the University of South Florida, and a B.A. in Linguistics from the University of Florida. I taught AE Pronunciation 2 at INTO USF and was an English Tutor as well during my MA studies. I have experience teaching in Colombian Bilingual High Schools and Secondary schools. I have a CELTA teaching certificate and TESL certification through UF, with experience teaching all levels of ESL, ages 6- 50+. I have gained competence through extensive work with international students and working abroad.It is my dream to continue educating, spreading the love of learning languages and cultures. Mi pasión es educar con todo mi corazón y aprender más sobre las culturas y el aprendizaje. Tengo experiencia enseñando en Universidad del Norte, colegios y escuelas primarias. Me encanta hacer proyectos y enseñar en una manera dinámica y interactiva.
