Profile Information

About Me: I was born and raised in Argentina. I became a Literary and Technico-Scientific English Translator in 1999 in Argentina. I took 3 year of French and after finishing my BA I travelled to Europe and South America. I started teaching EFL before I moved to Chicago in 2001 and became a Spanish instructor. I’ve taught all levels of Spanish, to all ages and in different socioeconomic environments. I have been providing foreign language instruction and integrating cross-cultural training to a wide audience (hospitals, schools, corporations, Organizations, etc.) in the Chicago metropolitan area. I believe that learning a new language other than your own and get to know its culture, would not only open new doors to the world but it would also give a person a broader view of things, get different perspectives; it would help students see that there is an endless list of options for them to choose and decide how they would like to lead their own lives in this world.
