I am a language teacher educator with over 34 years of experience. I have taught at schools, pedagogical institutes, language centers, and universities in Lima, Peru. Since then, I have been reflecting on working with teenagers and adults and the importance of patience, understanding, and consistency.

In addition to teaching students, I have spent time teaching teachers how to create, utilize and integrate teaching methodology and strategies in their classrooms. The highlight of my involvement in staff development came when I joined a group of Peruvian English teachers at the ESS Project supported by the MED and British Council since 1991. I attended intensive workshops on TEFL to be a teacher trainer. In 1993, I started training in-service state school English teachers in Cusco. It was one of the most challenging professional experiences. I currently continue training teachers and attending as a speaker at conferences, congresses, and workshops around Perú and abroad.

Over the years, I have developed some teaching material and anthologies. As a course developer, I have applied my extensive knowledge of ICT and distance/blending learning to build my courses using different e-learning tools such as Blogger, Twitter, Facebook, Ning, and Moodle.
