Experience

I would love to continue tutoring, I enjoy teaching because of my past experience in Madrid! I spent the past year teaching English in Madrid, Spain. I also tutored privately on the side, preparing for language proficiency exams and ESL. I also spent half a year in Sevilla volunteering at a high school. I can speak Spanish. I taught all levels from ages 3 to adults. I took classes through the best writing school in America! University of Iowa is known for its creative writing program. As well as previously been a student taking AP classes and ACT. I received credit for all AP classes I took for college.

Hobbies

I really love working with students. The past year in Madrid taught me a lot about what career path I'd like to pursue. I'm interested in pursuing a certification in bilingual education. In my free time, I like writing, reading, traveling, and eating at new places! I have a blog kristinaperdida.com, if you'd like to check it out. At the University of Iowa, I was involved in philanthropy (Dance Marathon) and Director of Marketing at my college radio station. I believe that learning doesn't have to be boring, if you know how to pique a kid's interest in the subject.
