I was born in Glasgow, Scotland, raised and educated in Canada and have been happily living in this part of Florida for the past 18 years. I received my Honors B.A. in French and Spanish from the University of Waterloo, with a fourth year "abroad" at  Université Laval  in Ste. Foy, Québec. My teaching degree is from the University of Western Ontario and my Master's in Bilingualism and Bi-culturalism with an emphasis on ESOL, is from the University of Florida. Go Gators!
