* No class will be held on March 24th or April 14th.
Instructor BIO:
Hola! My name is Vanesa Roberts. I was born and raised in Argentina. I love learning about different cultures and the magic of language. I started teaching in Argentina and with all the years I have already been in the USA, I add up to over 20 years of experience in the field of education. In my free time, I like to be with my family. We love to travel, and whenever we have a chance, we go camping and hiking. Bakeries are a must-stop at our destinations, especially those with European or Argentine-style pastries. Let’s say that music, friends, adventure, faith, as well as dancing, baking, teaching, laughing, and spending tons of time with my family make me the person I am today. What about you? Are you ready for this Spanish adventure? Let’s do it!
