Carla Martinez Quezada

She graduated as an English Teacher and Bachelor of Education in Chile in 2008. She had the opportunity to teach elementary, high-school and adult learners in both schools and EFL programs. Languages have always interested her and, therefore, learning creative ways to teach English, in this case, is one of her main goals.
She would like to learn more languages in the future, and to experience other cultures.
