ABOUT ME:

I have a Bachelor and Doctorate degrees from UNAM , National Autonomous University of Mexico,as well as two Masters of Science from the University of Reading, England. Also I have been a research fellow at Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y, but no matter what I have done in my life, I have always been a teacher, ranging from Early Childhood to Graduate. Teaching is my passion!

I was born in Mexico City, but I have lived in The United States, England, Scotland and Pakistan. I have traveled a lot with my husband Ricardo Torres Nava, who is the first Mexican and LatinAmerican summiting Mount Everest, as well as the highest mountain in every continent. I have been teaching in Texas for the past 10 years all core subjects at elementary level.

I speak Spanish, English, French and Italian, as well as Greek and Latin roots for academic language and basic Urdu. I love learning languages that is why I can also read Greek, Cyrilic and Hebrew alphabets and I am trying to teach myself Russian. 

My hobbies are swimming, cycling, trekking, dancing, riding my husband's motorcycle, listening to all kind of music and reading. I don't have any kids, but I have two Borzoi dogs that I adore, Ede the girl and Quattro my boy.
