I fell in love with teaching and learning at a very young age. I always knew I wanted to teach and share the knowledge that I have with others to help them grow. While I was 17, I was selected to be part of a group of students who was trained to lead and teach young students in an outdoor education program in the mountains of Colorado. During College I joined an organization and was trained to teach illiterate young adults how to read and write. Off and on for 3 years, while I was earning my undergraduate degree, I worked part time as a Gymnastics and Cheerleader coach to girls aged from Preschool to 18 years old. After college, I began working in the Marketing field and learned to command the English language through copy writing and business. Because of my love for both teaching and English, it was a natural progression to combine these passions and I began to volunteer as a English Teacher at Centro de San Juan in September of 2010. During this time I decided to make it official and become certified to teach English. In August of 2011 I earned my TEFL certificate with an endorsement in Business English and Young Language Learners. To further my education I began working on my Masters degree in Education with Metropolitan University in Denver, CO. I now live in Moscow and teach full time at a Kindergarten to a class full 4 year olds, teach part time with Inlace and love every minute of it. The best part of teaching is, I am able to continuously grow and learn as I teach others around me. The greatest feeling in the world is to have someone in my life who is eager for knowledge and knowing that I am able to provide that, is amazing.
