I prioritize a comprehensive understanding of language proficiency and cultural competency. Through personalized instruction and immersive learning experiences, I guide students in developing their listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills in Spanish. By exploring authentic materials such as literature, films, news articles, and cultural artifacts, students gain insight into the diversity and richness of Spanish-speaking cultures. I emphasize communicative competence, encouraging students to engage in meaningful interactions and express their ideas fluently and accurately. Additionally, I prepare students for the AP exam by familiarizing them with its format, strategies for success.
