63. A Passion for Learning with Carolina Reyt

Carolina Reyt self describes as an eternal learner. Luckily, learning to be a better teacher is a never ending process and that's what makes teaching fun. Listen as Carolina describes the learning circle of giving and receiving and how this helps her plan and deliver interesting classes where she and her students are continually challenging each other to try new things. Now we just need a report how the peanut butter and jelly sandwich was. Bio I was born and raised in Argentina. I loved studying English as a Foreign Language as a kid. I loved it so much that I decided to get my Bachelor's Degree in that subject. I did a post-graduate specialization in English Literature. I will always be grateful to my professors in Argentina. Their brilliance, deep knowledge of Language Acquisition and mentorship guide me until today. Later on, I came to work in the US, in New Jersey. We decided to Texas and I did my Master of Arts in Spanish Literature and Linguistics. I have been working in Plano ISD for 16 years. I have taught all the levels of Spanish. I have given many professional development trainings. I have been very involved with the Curriculum Development team. I have met and worked with awesome teachers and leaders. The most important and impactful part of my job: my students, their love for learning my language and culture.
