All about Senora Linares
As a child I went to the Milwaukee Spanish Immersion School in Milwaukee where I was taught
every subject in Spanish. That is where my love for the Spanish language first started. I was so e
nthralled with the language and culture that I knew I wanted to use it in my life forever. I kept t
aking classes in Spanish in high school and then at Edgewood College in Madison, Wi. While in college
I studied abroad living with host families in Seville, Spain for 4 months and I also spent two weeks in
El Salvador. I now travel to Mexico at least once a year to visit family. These have been the best
experiences of my life and I highly recommend to everyone that they travel outside of the U.S. to see
what the world is really like. Teaching has always been my passion in life and I am so excited to pass on my
knowledge and love of the Spanish language with you. When I am not at school I love to spend time outdoors
with my daughter Sofia, my husband Carlos and our dog, Capitan. I also love to cook, read and watch movies.
What do you I want to accomplish in my time with you?
My mission is to open your minds and hearts to all the wonders that the Spanish language and culture encompass.
