At Brays Language School, I teach Spanish students English and create curated lesson plans for young learners and adults across Cambridge English levels. I work in small-group and one-to-one classroom settings to help learners achieve their language goals.

I've also taught online at VIPKID, supported BEDA classrooms in Madrid, and designed speaking activities for infant, primary, and secondary students. My TEFL training and teaching experience span Spain, Italy, and online learning environments.
