"Hello, my name is Denise. I have 25 years of experience teaching ESL to students from other countries and I have a TEFL/TESL/TESOL certificate. My family is from Spain, so I learned Spanish when I was a child and have been teaching it for 20 years. I lived in Brazil, where I studied Portuguese, am fluent in Portuguese, and have taught it for the past few years as well. In addition, I am an interpreter and translator for Spanish and Portuguese. My Masters is in Latin American Studies - Anthropology, which, coupled with my extensive travels, has helped me to to better understand students from many different cultures and all walks of life. I love teaching and am very committed to my students." less...
