Andrea Page
Spanish
I started working at NWC+ in 2023 and I am looking forward to another year working with the students in the “Plus” program.
I retired from the Los Angeles Unified School District in 2021 after 27 years of having taught Spanish at all levels, both Heritage speakers and second language Spanish learners. I have also taught English language learners.
I love to facilitate the learning of the Spanish language and culture. I strive to bring good instruction to all students and inspire them to see the benefits of learning other languages.
I have degrees in Latin American Studies, B.A and an M.A.,from Cal State University, Los Angeles. In addition, I hold a California single subject teaching credential and a BCLAD, (Bilingual-Crosscultural Language Acquisition Development) certificate also acquired through Cal State University, Los Angeles.
My personal and professional travel experience includes Spain, Mexico and Central America, with South America pending! I have also led students on educational tours. I believe the best way to understand others is through an immersive experience with the language and culture.
My personal hobbies include travel, cooking, music, art and exercise. In addition, I raised a child with special needs who is still a very big part of my life as an adult.
