Lisa

=**¡Hola!**=

My name is Lisa Houston and I teach elementary Spanish to grades 1-5 in Edgewood Elementary School in Scarsdale, NY. I have been teaching FLES here for 5 years. Prior to that, I taught middle school Spanish in Ardsley and elementary Spanish in Edgemont. My love for the Spanish language and its cultures began at a young age. I was born and raised in The Bronx, where I often heard Spanish on the street- whether it was being spoken or from the Salsa and Merengue music being played from the streets below. I formally began to learn Spanish when I was in the 6th grade and continued studying the language throughout college and graduate school. Not only is the language fascinating, but so are the various cultures of the Spanish-speaking world. So, naturally I have traveled to several Spanish-speaking countries, including Panama, Puerto Rico and Mexico. One of my goals in life is to travel to all 21 Spanish-speaking countries!
