I have been teaching English for over 20 years in many private elementary and high schools. At present, I am teaching online and recruiting teachers for different companies on different platforms such as Skype and Zoom. I am challenged to be creative, responsible, and well-organized.  In 1991 I had the opportunity to get a job as coordinator of an English department in an elementary school in Buenos Aires, which was a rich experience as I could work with a great team of teachers. It is my goal to combine my range of experience with my ability of being an enthusiastic instructor who will make a positive contribution to any educational project.
