Coach... It means, what it means! Coach, entrenador, maestro… Palabras que sin duda llevan en su contexto, respeto y orgullo, tanto para quien lo dice, como para quien lo recibe.  Durante toda mi preparatoria y gran parte de mi universidad, tome cursos como instructora en diferentes disciplinas del fitness; y tuve la fortuna de dar clase de cada una ellas, a diferentes clases sociales; durante ese tiempo me di cuenta que hacer un curso no te hace instructor, ni te da el conocimiento necesario para manejar VIDAS, por lo que lo tomé como una vocación y entré más estudiaba más quería involucrarme con el deporte y con el ser humano. Tuve la suerte de contar con mi mamá como maestra y gu...

Children Statistics have shown that over 32 million children live on streets in Africa. In Nigeria alone, the number of orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) is estimated at 17.5 million, out of which 7.3 million are orphaned by HIV/AIDS.

For the past months I have been teaching full time in a 8th grade. For me, it has been an immensely experience. I am a great supporter of knowledge and education, and teaching is essential for those two. Being able to take part of 30 kids´ life, and teaching them (hopefully) valuable knowledge, was ...

La gramática es ese conjunto de reglas que pautan nuestro universo textual y que con el paso de los años vamos considerándola cada vez más intuitiva, por no decir inconsciente. Sin embargo, como todo ejercicio intelectual, requiere de atención. Siempre es necesario nutrir los saberes lingüísticos co...

I give thanks every day for having the opportunity to do what I love.  It would be an understatement to say that I’m passionate about teaching.  That’s primarily because, to me, the word “teaching” encompasses much more than what it does to most.  Teaching is about building lasting relationships, it’s about sharing, it’s about trusting and, above all, it’s about caring.
