¡Hola!Hello! My name is Maria Kalin, but I am known as Señora Kalin by your students. I was born and raised in Argentina. I moved to the United Stated in 1990 and I started teaching Spanish to High School Students in 1991. I have taught all levels of Spanish in my 20+ years as a Spanish teacher. I began teaching in Montecito Union in the year 2000. In my capacity as Spanish teacher, I have taught every grade level from Kindergarten to Sixth Grade. I love teaching the lower grades because I love singing and developing curriculum that is fun and interesting. I also do my best to stay updated with technology to keep up with my students' tech skills.
I have a beautiful family. I have two sons: Lucas and Nico, two dogs: Max and Jojo, and two cats: Pochi and Clayton. I love to travel with my family and to open my sons' eyes to the world around them. I hope to deepen their understanding of different cultures and that this will help them become better citizens of the world. I enjoy sharing this love for different cultures and peoples with my students too. I hope they too will learn tolerance and acceptance towards those who are different from them. I am very excited about the Spanish website and I would really appreciate your feedback. If you have any comments or suggestions, please visit the "Contact" page under the "more" tab on top of the screen. ¡Gracias! |
