I am a bilingual teacher (Spanish-English), who wants children to learn academically and socially, respecting their ways of learning, knowing them as well as possible, to make their paths to knowledge easier and to make them happy with these processes.
Supporting inclusion, developing different methodologies and strategies in the teaching of different subjects.
I learn day by day, according to the different models of each institution, willing to change and with an open mind to new teaching strategies. How to teach for understanding, P4P, Reggio Emilia and others.

For more than 25 years, I have contributed my learning and experience in bilingual institutions as a Self-contained or bilingual teacher and in non-bilingual schools as an English teacher in preschool, elementary school and sometimes with the first grades of high school.
I have acquired knowledge in different models and methodologies in the didactics of each discipline.
I have met different children with different expectations and personal interests, with different and special needs.
I have managed to leave a mark in many of them. And my greatest satisfaction is to see them grow as people and to see them grow as children.

I have a degree in Preschool Education from the University of San Buenaventura.
Initially I acquired English at the Centro Colombo Americano.
Then I took the course to present the TKT, obtaining B3.
I have done diploma courses in:
- Neurolinguistic Programming
