What I'm looking for

I'm looking to develop a career in translation and interpretation while applying my English–Spanish language skills, cross-cultural communication, and student-centered teaching experience.

I've taught English to learners of different ages and proficiency levels, adapting lessons, assessments, and interactive materials to their individual goals. I focus on strengthening listening, reading, writing, and speaking while building fluency and confidence.

As an English practitioner teacher, I designed curriculum-aligned lesson plans and managed classes of 15–16 children. I'm completing English Philology studies and Spanish language teaching training, with a strong interest in translation and interpretation.
