Benavente, Maria

Senior Instructor

In 1998 I returned to USA and in 2003 I obtained a master degree in "Teaching Spanish as a Second Language by the National Distance University in Spain. In USA I briefly taught at the High School level, and at the college level as an Spanish Instructor in Columbia College (2002) and at the University of South Carolina (2007 until present).In my teaching Spanish I encourage to make it their own by integrating it in their lives and using it to expand who they are.
