Come Learn French and Spanish with Me!
- As a child, I was in training to be an Olympic-level gymnast! I stopped at age 7
- I studied German for all four years of high school. I lived in Mainz during my junior year.
- I scored magna cum laude on the National Latin Exam when I was a student at Hunter!
I currently teach Spanish and French at the Hewitt School in the Upper East Side. In 2010, I completed my BA in French Language and Civilization and Spanish Literature at Hunter College. After attending La Sorbonne Nouvelle and Paris XIII for two years in Paris, I decided to continue my French studies in a PhD program where I left with a M.Phil in 2016. I was the head language tutor at Hunter's Chanin Language Center until 2019 when I decided to become a full-time teacher in independent schools. Excited at the promise of meeting and working with you!
