Hi, I'm Cristian
I'm a Spanish teacher from Colombia who loves building fun, engaging and culturally rich learning spaces. I also teach in the Dual Language Immersion program at Driggs Elementary School in Driggs, Idaho. Latanish began as a personal project a few years ago, and we're still going strong, welcoming new Spanish learners every session. I'd love for you to join us.
