BA Spanish - University of Wisconsin TESOL certified (Teaching English to Speakers of other Languages) * MAT (Masters of Teaching)- Sierra Nevada College All coursework finished. All I have left is to write my thesis and student teach to obtain my Nevada Teacher Certification for teaching secondary Spanish.

I am currently 95% done with my Masters in Teaching from Sierra Nevada College with a career total 3.8 GPA.
