About Me

¡Hola! My name is Valeria and I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I am an Early Childhood Education Teacher and Pedagogical Digital Facilitator.
Since I got my degree in 2002, I had the privilege of working for some of the most prestigious private schools in the country.
I have been teaching Spanish to adults, teenagers and children of all levels for more than 20 years (Yes! I took my first steps tutoring via MSN and Skype when virtuality was not something familiar to everyone).
I currently dedicate all my time to teaching Spanish on Verbling and working for the Ministry of Education training other teachers in the use of technology in the classroom.
Have you already realized that teaching is my true calling? That's the passion I put into each and every one of my lessons!
So, if you need to improve your skills or just get started in the amazing world of Spanish with an experienced, passionate and native-speaking tutor this could be a great opportunity!
