About BHVO Español
BHVO Español provides engaging, personalized Spanish coaching primarily for adults who want to communicate with greater confidence in real life.
Individual academic tutoring is also available for motivated high-school students who need support with coursework while developing Spanish they can use beyond the classroom.
Every lesson blends conversation, culture, mindset, and grammar in context, helping learners not just understand Spanish, but live it.
Experience & Credentials
I am a certified Spanish teacher in Arizona, Pennsylvania, Oregon, and Iowa, teaching since 2007. I maintain an active teaching schedule across college, high school, and middle school settings, and regularly deliver language intensives, teacher trainings, and workshops.
I hold a B.A. in English and an M.A. in Experiential Education and Spanish. Both degrees inform my teaching philosophy: learning should be dynamic, student-centered and rooted in real-world application.
Beyond the Classroom
I live in Prescott, Arizona and spend summers in Ashland, Oregon with my family. Outside of teaching, I love practicing yoga, writing, reading, cooking, hiking, mountain biking, and strength training.
I’m happiest exploring the outdoors - chasing sunsets, thunderstorms, and inspiration in the mountains, oceans, lakes, and rivers around the world.
