Hi! My name is Andrea, and I'm a Spanish professor at West Virginia University, in the USA. I started working here in 2017, and I love it!

I love teaching languages, although I can also help with other subjects. I firmly believe that, to learn a language (or any other subject), enjoying the process is key. This is why I tend to use different methodologies to help in the learning. One of those is the use of music and videos, since they are part of our lives. I also use classbooks in order to achieve the required level for the class, if that is the case. I'm always open to use other methodologies to keep the motivation of the learner. I also focus on all the language skills and try to balance their learning and acquisition.
