¡Hablamos el español!/Let’s speak Spanish!

Hello! My name is Profe Jordan/Jordan/Profe.

I have been a student of the Spanish language for nearly four decades, and have been teaching it for close to 20 years. I am licensed to teach Spanish to students grades 6-12 through the Oregon State Teachers Standards and Practices Commission, and have taught in four Portland area middle and high schools. I hold a M.Ed. and a BA in Spanish from Portland State University. Along with my credentials and experience, I absolutely love to teach students of all ages. Watching others grow in their understanding and use of another language is an energizing and fulfilling experience for me, and I look forward to continuing this work for many years to come.
