Meet our teachers!
Ethel I'm Ethel, I am an English teacher in a Peruvian Secondary School in Huaraz and I have been working here for 22 years. I am also an experienced Spanish teacher for foreigners at all levels, and have been doing this for more than 22 years. For the past 14 years, I have been teaching Spanish to previous Seeds of Hope volunteers. I love to teach but also learn from others. Teaching offers me the opportunity to explore new ideas and teaching Spanish has given me the chance to help foreigners to learn about Peru's people, culture and history. |

Jenny
My name is Jenny, I am 36 years old. I live in the city of Huaraz and I studied tourism at University. I now have six years of experience teaching Spanish. I also studied for a career in education. I love nature and the mountains and one of my passions is teaching. These past years have been very fulfilling to be able to teach, translate and facilitate intercultural communication. The Spanish language is very beautiful and I hope to be able to help new students learn more about the culture and language. |
