Abraham Lincoln College:

Greetings to everyone! I teach Spanish at Gorton High School in Yonkers, New York in the United States. For twenty-nine years I have had the pleasure of touching the lives of the many young people who have passed through the doors of my Spanish classroom. I look forward to getting up in the morning and spending the major part of my day with them. In 1998 and 2000 I was named one of the teachers in "Who's Who Among American Teachers."

My hobbies are computers, music, literature and crossword puzzles. I have tried to integrate my favorite pastimes with my teaching of the Spanish language, so as to create a multidisciplinary curriculum that would better motivate my students. To achieve this end my students and I have been a part of the Kidlink family for the past six years. We have participated in the many Kidlink projects that Kidlink-Spanish has offered and spoken with many students in Spanish speaking countries through the use of Kidlink's chat service. Thanks to the magic of Kidlink we have been able to travel around the world without leaving our classroom here in Yonkers. The time that we have been a part of Kidlink has been an unforgettable and instructive experience.

Original text (Spanish)

Saludos a Todos! Soy profesora de español en el Colegio Gorton en Yonkers, Nueva York en los Estados Unidos. Hace veinte y nueve años que tengo el placer de tocar las vidas de los muchos jóvenes que han pasado por las puertas de mi salón de español. Me encantan levantarme por la mañana y salir a pasar la mayor parte de mi día con ellos.
En el año 1998 y 2000 fui nombrada una de los profesores en "Quien es Quien Entre Los Profesores En América."
Mis pasatiempos favoritos son las computadoras, la música, la literatura y los crucigramas. He tratado de integrar mis gustos y la enseñanza de español para crear un curículo interdisciplinario para mejor motivar a mis estudiantes. Por eso hace seis años que mis alumnos y yo somos parte de la familia Kidlink. Hemos participado en los muchos proyectos que Kidlink-Spanish nos ha brindado y charlado con varios alumnos en países hispanos através del IRC. Gracias a la magia de Kidlink hemos podido dar una vuelta al mundo sin tener que dejar nuestro salón de español aquí en Yonkers.
Nuestra estancia en Kidlink ha sido una experiencia inolvidable e instructiva.
