Certified Tutor
I grew up in the Republic of Moldova, Eastern Europe. By the time I graduated from high school, I was fluent in Romanian, Russian and French.
I graduated from the State University of Moldova, earning a B.S. degree in Spanish Language and Literature, while simultaneously obtaining an M.S. degree in Philologist and Teacher of Spanish. I worked several years as a language instructor, after which I began my career in diplomacy with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Moldova. Related to my diplomatic career, I earned a post-baccalaureate certificate in International Relations for Diplomats at the Diplomatic School of Madrid. After working as a diplomat for my country, I joined the United Nations Development Program in Central America, Republic of Guatemala where I worked and lived for 13 years.
In 2018 I graduated from La Salle University in Philadelphia where I studied to obtain the teaching certificate.
I worked as a teacher of Spanish and French in several public and private schools in different states: Utah, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Washington DC, and Virginia.
I worked as an online Support Teacher for a Spanish Immersion Program with the Washington International School. This has been the first time I have taught exclusively through Zoom, and it has been a positive experience for me. I have learned how to teach remotely, which not only entailed learning the technology behind it, but also how to best instruct students at a distance.
I enjoyed being a Tutor for Spanish, Russian and Romanian languages with students different ages and levels.
I am passionate about teaching Spanish, Russian and Romania all levels, and French for the beginners. I love to teach about the culture, art, literature, history, and geography of these countries.
I like to help student that struggle with different learning disabilities and my teaching philosophy is that all the students deserve to have access to high quality education to become citizens of the world.
Waiting to meet and help you!
