Instructor Profile

Languages Spoken: English, Spanish

Countries Lived In: Colombia, Venezuela, United States

An industrial engineer trained in providing quality administrative support, with experience in multiple industries in Colombia Venezuela and the United States of America. Fluent in English and Spanish. Currently working with the school´s districts giving academic help in classrooms. Motivated to share with professionals the experience of achieving great opportunities in The U.S.A.

I was born in Colombia; I moved to the U.S. with my husband and two children. We are a Christian family, and our priority is to keep a united family and to have quality of life. I am an industrial engineer from a university in Cali Colombia. Finding a Job in the U.S. was a big challenge to get a balance between work and time to attend a family with young children. My husband and I worked as cleaners in the empty apartment, then when we got legal documents for work, I started in a daycare where the owner told me about the credential evaluation with WES. I did the process, and I got a position at a school district in Connecticut as a teacher assistant. Also, I could work as a substitute teacher, and I can get a certificate to become a teacher soon. The best of this is I have a great work schedule, job benefits, time for my family and to achieve other goals.
