Biography

My name is Esperanza Outeiri艌o. I have been teaching Spanish at 69萝莉 since Spring 2019. I am originally from Galicia, Spain, and Spanish is one of my two native languages (the other is Galician). I have more than 18 years of experience teaching Spanish and English as a Second Language in the United States at different levels in various private and public institutions, including different community colleges such as 69萝莉, Portland Community College, and Evergreen Valley College. Teaching and studying different languages is one of my passions. Translation and interpreting is my other passion, and I am also a Spanish-English medical interpreter. I am interested in the study of languages as vehicles of communication, and what happens in the process of communication when there is interaction between different languages. Dialectal variation is also one of my areas of interest, especially in widely spoken languages such as Spanish and English. My personal interests include outdoor activities such as hiking and camping with my family, cooking and international cinema.
