Resume

I started teaching Spanish as a second language when I moved to the Byron Shire 18 years ago. I was born in Mexico and migrated to Australia in my early 20’s. I have always had a passion for language and the spoken word which has taken me to various roles within the local community. I work as an interpreter and translator and have presented a bilingual radio show in the local Community Radio station for 12 years. I taught at Adult Community Education Ballina for 3 years before joining the Byron Community College.
I received my Certificate IV in Training and Assesment here at the college and I have enjoyed teaching 3 different levels of Spanish over the last 10 years. Teaching Spanish has always given me great rewards like meeting wonderful people and seeing students come out of classes with a smile on their faces and committing to the journey of learning a new language.
