¡Hola! I’m María Gamboa and I am honored to teach your children the beautiful Spanish language and the culture of the people who speak it.
I’m originally from Mexico. I came to the USA to get my Ph.D. in Chemistry, but life changed my path and now I’m enjoying teaching Spanish.
I believe that in this connected world, learning another language is very important. When we open that window, it boosts our brain power, enhances our knowledge, and allows us to become better and kinder people.
I really love teaching Spanish. That is why I teach adults when I’m not at Friends School. I also like drawing and using colors to bring a painting alive. Spending time with my husband and daughter, at home or in the mountains, is one of my favorite ways of enjoying life.
I hope to meet you all soon!
¡Hasta pronto!
