Teacher Profile: Adult Class Teacher Ms. Sherry Santangelo

I graduated from Tamkang University major in Spanish and minor in Business.  I went to Spain to study Spanish for one year after college. I taught English when I was in Taiwan and also taught Spanish to a Chinese group when I was in Los Angeles. Now I'm leading a Chinese Circle in Chelmsford Library to help Non-Chinese speakers to have a chance to practice Chinese.  

It's a great fun to help people speak Chinese.
