– Camps / After School Teacher -Yenni Reyes
I was born and raised in Cuba. After living in Miami for more than seven years I decided to move to Austin. Now, I call Austin my home. I have a BS degree in Veterinary from Cuba University. After moving to Miami, I discovered my passion for teaching children. Ever since, I have attended various professional training’s in early childhood education. I also have an Early Childhood director credential from Miami. I have spent the last years in Miami as After School lead teacher. Although I enjoy all aspects of the classroom, Children’s Literature is my first love. I try to include books throughout as many of our learning activities as possible. I enjoy passing on the joy of reading to my students.

Not long after it I realized my passion for languages and I decided to go back to university, this time Barcelona’s university to get my diploma in teaching Spanish. Ever since I’ve been teaching Spanish and English around the world (Spain, Ireland, South Korea…) opening my life to multicultural experiences.
