I have recently completed my TEFL Certification in Barcelona. I have some experience teaching to children both abroad and in the United States. I have traveled to Africa and worked in a small village, Shirate, Tanzania, where I taught students ages 7 to 17 English and math. It was this experience that helped me to expand my desire to teach in a different country. During my college career I studied abroad in Siena, Italy. I have enjoyed teaching gymnastics for seven years and I have always loved working with children. I have recently moved to Madrid and I am currently looking for a job in Madrid.
