I create resources that empower the tireless teacher to get students speaking!
I have over 20 years of experience teaching Spanish and French K-12. My passion is working with early language learners. Whether in Kindergarten or in grade 12, I love watching the student go from knowing nothing at all in the target language, to understanding lessons taught 100% in the TL, to beginning to speak a little bit themselves!
#SoRewarding
We know we need to immerse our students fully in the target language. We know we need to keep it comprehensible. In my online store, I specialize in simple, comprehensible, and engaging readers.
#TogetherWeCanDoIt!
If you are ready to get your students speaking and reading in the target language, check out my simplified fairy tales in Spanish and French. They are my most popular items!

level of protection for personal data; or
·
If we use US-based providers that are
part of EU-US Privacy Shield, we may transfer data to them, as they have
equivalent safeguards in place; or

COOKIES AND PIXELS
Similar to other commercial websites, our website utilizes
a standard technology called “cookies” and server logs to collect information
about how our Site is used. Information gathered through cookies and server
logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at
our site, and the websites visited just before and just after our own, as well
as your IP address.
A cookie is a very small text document, which often
includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a website, that site’s
computer asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your
hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each website can send its own
cookie to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it, but (to protect
your privacy) your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has
already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites.
We reserve the right to use technological equivalents of
cookies, including social media pixels. These pixels allow social media sites
to track visitors to outside websites so as to tailor advertising messages
users see while visiting that social media website. We reserve the right to use
these pixels in compliance with the policies of the various social media sites.
You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser
cookies, or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. If you disable or
refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this website may become
inaccessible or not function properly.
CALIFORNIA ONLINE PRIVACY PROTECTION ACT COMPLIANCE
Because we value your privacy we have taken the necessary
precautions to be in compliance with the California Online Privacy Protection
Act. California’s privacy standards are very high and we strive to live up to
those strict standards. We therefore will not distribute your personal
information to outside parties without your consent except as noted above.
At this time we do not respond to DNT (Do Not Track)
signals.
CHILDREN’S ONLINE PRIVACY PROTECTION ACT (COPPA) COMPLIANCE
We are in compliance with the requirements of COPPA
(Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act). We do not knowingly collect any
information from anyone under 13 years of age. Our website, products and
services are all directed to people who are at least 13 years old or older. We
recommend that anyone under 18 years of age participate and use our website,
products or services only with parental permission and supervision.
We do not intend to collect any personal information from
children under the age of 18. If a parent or guardian of a child who has
provided us with such personal information would like the information deleted
from our records, he or she should contact us at the email address listed at
the bottom of this policy statement. We will then delete the child’s personal
information from our files.
If we become aware that personally identifiable information
regarding a child under the age of 13 has been collected at the site, we will
use such information for the sole purpose of contacting a parent or guardian of
the child to obtain verifiable parental consent. If we cannot obtain consent
after a reasonable time, or if when contacted a parent or guardian requests
that we do not use or maintain such information, we will make reasonable
efforts to delete it from our records. Upon request by a parent or guardian, we
will provide a description of the specific types of personal information
collected from a child who is under the age of 13.
We welcome your questions regarding this Privacy Policy.
