Bio
Inma was born in Seville, Spain. She earned her two Masters degrees in Hispanic Linguistics and TESOL at Indiana University, Bloomington. After teaching at Indiana for nine years, she moved to Germany where she worked at EBS University. Now back in the States, she loves teaching Spanish to the Wolfpack community.
Her passion for linguistics and foreign language teaching is shown in the classes that she teaches: Spanish conversation and Spanish Phonetics.
