I cannot wait to help you
As an elementary Spanish teacher, I experienced burnout and lack of support firsthand.
I vividly remember finishing a day of teaching—exhausted and discouraged—only to go home with the same nagging question going through my head: “What am I going to teach tomorrow?”
So, I set out to help other teachers find a better way.
Children are natural language learners. And the #1 most effective way to teach your students to be conversational in Spanish is through immersion.
That’s why more than anything, I want to help you teach Spanish in Spanish...
...without sacrificing your personal life.
If you’re a Spanish teacher, you owe it to yourself, your students, and your family to see what your life in and out of the classroom could look like when you have all the resources and support you need at your fingertips.
With done-for-you lesson plans and access to exclusive training, Maestro Membership Community will take the guesswork out of teaching. You’ll be able to confidently engage your students in class and still have the time and space to enjoy your hobbies, home, and family.
I look forward to meeting you inside the Maestro Membership Community.
And I can’t wait to see you loving your life in and out of the classroom!

"Spanish Curriculum by SombreroTime has saved me so much time on planning. It helps the class to have a routine so the kids know what to expect. I found kids playing the games with the target words even when they are not in Spanish class. As a second year teacher this curriculum is exactly what I needed to build the foundation in my school for our Spanish program. Thank you!"
