 //** Hola a todos,

My name is Sra. Kush and this is my fourth year teaching Spanish at North Hunterdon High School. I am teaching Spanish 2, Spanish 3, and Spanish 3 Honors this year. I am very excited to start the new school year especially since I had the wonderful opportunity of attending a technology institute this summer for World Language Educators in New Jersey. This year I hope to explore a variety of technological mediums through which students may become more proficient in speaking, writing, and understanding the Spanish language. In addition, we will be developing a richer understanding of the various cultures in the Spanish-speaking world and fostering a greater awareness of how closely the Spanish language is linked with the cultures of the people who speak it! ** //  //**I started my language-learning journey as a freshman in highschool and discovered fairly soon thereafter that I loved learning Spanish! I went on to study Spanish in college and earned my B.A. in Spanish from Rutgers College in 2005. In 2006 I earned my Ed.M. from The Graduate School of Education at Rutgers University and then began teaching. I studied at the Universidad de Salamanca during the summer of 2003 and had the opportunity to travel throughout Spain for several weeks and immerse myself in the Spanish culture. Last summer I vacationed with my husband in Costa Rica and fell in love with the country! I believe that learning a new language opens your eyes to the world in a way that would otherwise never have been possible! I hope to share some of my enthusiasm for the Spanish language and cultures with you so that you too may become inspired to learn more! ¡Nos vemos en clase! **  Saludos, Sra. Kush :) //
