About
Hello! My name is Madi S. I am a senior at Kennesaw State University studying Spanish Education. Teaching is my life, and teaching Spanish is my specialty. I’ve been studying Spanish for 7 years now, and feel like it’s my time to help others learn the skill I’m so passionate about.
I taught English in Belize in 2016 and that was when I realized I couldn’t live without Spanish in my life. Since then, I have become one of the top performers in our Language department. I currently teach Special Ed at Kennesaw, but would love to be able to help more people! I hope one of those people can be you.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
First, I like to assess my student's level of comprehension based on the ACTFL standards. After that, I ask my students to take the foreign language classroom anxiety scale so I can learn their preferences for learning. After that, I help them with their grammar and vocabulary, depending on the methods they prefer. I use as much authentic material as possible.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a Spanish Education major. I currently teach special ed at Kennesaw State's Accademy of Inclusive Learning and Social Growth. I also taught ESOL in Belize.
