¡Hola! Soy Señora Hess. When I'm not in the classroom teaching Spanish at Bainbridge High School, you'll often find me pursuing my passions for golf, paddling, travel, hiking, cooking, gardening, and spending quality time with loved ones.

Having lived in South America for 13 years, teaching in international schools, I've developed a profound appreciation for cultural diversity and the power of language in connecting people across borders. My goal as an educator is to inspire students to not only learn Spanish but also to gain deeper insights into themselves through understanding others.

In my classes, I strive to create an immersive environment by speaking Spanish most of the time. It's a journey of exploration where making mistakes, showing patience, having confidence and embracing open-mindedness are key to fostering genuine cultural understanding and appreciation.

I invite you to join me on this enriching journey of language learning and cultural discovery. Get ready to open your mind, broaden your horizons, and embark on an exciting adventure together!
