The Vlogger
I’m a Wisconsin high school Spanish teacher from California, I’ve taught K-12 over the past 12 years, & our WL Department is excited to offer the UW-Green Bay Dual Enrollment Program to our Spanish V students. I’ve also taught at The Concordia Language Villages & as a Global Discovery Leader for CIEE in Sevilla, España.
I’ve attended CSUSB, UW-Madison, UW-Stout, & La Universidad de Sevilla. I have a BS in Spanish, a MS in Education, & A LOT more useful knowledge from workshops, amazing colleagues, & social media superstars. I was selected as a Wisconsin State Teacher of the Year in 2017, which was completely shocking underserved.
Throughout the year I enjoy presenting at conferences and hosting workshops to help teachers make their classes more enjoyable and comprehensible. Some of my favorite conferences to attend as a learner are iFLT, CI Midwest, CI at the Mitten, NTPRS, CI Online, and ACTFL.
My favorite teaching methods include providing comprehensible input using TPRS while riding a unicycle, target language karaoke & class dance-offs, skits using a variety of wigs, & drawing sweet dry-erase cartoons to increase comprehension.
The Vlog
Although I’m always providing buckets of CI for language acquisition, I’m also bound to a grammar-based curriculum. That means you’ll find a little bit of everything on this site.
The best PD includes legit classrooms with real students. In order to include mine, all guardians have provided written consent during summer registration.
