Personal Statement

I grew up in the UK and immigrated to the United States 20 years ago. I myself possess near-native fluency in Spanish so I have been through the process of learning a second language. I also studied second language acquisition as part of my Master's Degree at NYU. I am fortunate enough to have an in-depth understanding of what it means to learn not just an additional language, but also an additional culture. Having extensive experience teaching students from a wide variety of countries and backgrounds, I am able to effectively anticipate linguistic challenges.
