CONFERENCES AND TRAININGS
Let’s Get to Work Together
I help world language educators use effective, research-based strategies that truly connect with today’s students.
As an active teacher, I bring practical, classroom-tested techniques to my workshops, consultations, and mentoring—offered both in-person and online.
Looking for engaging professional development tailored to your elementary Spanish department or district? Interested in learning how to teach with comprehensible input/ADI (Acquisition Driven Instruction). Let’s collaborate to plan a workshop that meets your goals! Contact me here!
