Have you taught at other schools? If so, where?
So I was actually an English teacher in Santiago, Chile, after I graduated from undergrad. I did that for about five months, so that was my first teaching experience but it was obviously very different from teaching here.
What subject do you teach and what do you like about that subject?
I teach Spanish. More specifically I teach Spanish 2, which generally are sophomores, some freshmen, and I also teach IB Spanish 1. I love teaching Spanish. It’s really rewarding to see students learn and grow as I’m teaching them and helping them through that process. I especially love my IB class. It’s a tight-knit group of kids and they’re all truly motivated.
What do you like to do outside of school? What hobbies do you have?
Outside of school I powerlift, so essentially it’s competitions in which you have to bench press, squat, and deadlift, and then they take the highest number you can do out of each of those respective lists and then they add it up to create your total.
What is your favorite movie?
I love the movie It’s a Wonderful Life. I also like the movie The Shawshank Redemption.
What borough do you live in?
I live in Brooklyn, I live in Bushwick, so my commute takes about twenty-five minutes, it’s really easy to get here.
