Why she teaches: To empower young minds with self-sufficiency skills, thinking and logical skills, as well as self-respect to succeed academically.

Background: Born in Peru to German parents, she grew up fluent in three languages. She now speaks five languages. "I'm a diverse and multicultural person. I have a broader view of multicultural and diverse education issues and thought processes."

What works with her own kids: Being attuned without cultural differences (since my children were born in America) and challenging them every day, thus motivating them to succeed without overdependence.
