Language instruction is for me a vocation. After obtaining a pharmacy degree, working as a pharmacist, and teaching basic health skills such as disease prevention, nutrition, hygiene, etc. while filling prescriptions at a family business in a working community in Spain, I learned some teaching skills. After earning a Master's degree at the University of Massachusetts School of Public Health, and doing Teacher Certification at Dickinson College, language instruction in a variety of contexts has been my career for many years, mainly in higher education.
