Carla Albry Cofrades

 

I was born in Mexico City, Mexico. I am a mother of 2 wonderfully bilingual boys of ages 15 and 13. I came up with the idea of creating the Spanish on Wheels program, from observing the advantages my own 2 boys demonstrate at school.

I graduated from “NuevoMundo” University in Mexico City, with a degree in Law. I started working as a lawyer in the Family business, Cofrades Associates, for 6 years.
I moved to Allen, Texas in the Summer of 2007. I started working as a teacher for 2 years at The Reading Ranch Preschool and Tutorial Center.

During the summer of 2008, I went to Spain and got my “Spanish as a Second Language” Certification from the University of Salamanca. I am extremely excited to bring all my knowledge and skills, as well as my enthusiasm, to Spanish on Wheels.

 

Maria Gabriela Romagnoli

I was born in Rosario, Argentina. Being a mother of 2 trilingual girls, of ages 22 and 19, gives me a vast amount of input into creating this program. I must say, being able to see the advantage of another language, with my own eyes, through my daughters, is truly incredible.

I have a degree in Philosophy, Psychology, Pedagogy, and Counseling from the “Instituto Nacional Superior del Profesorado” (National Superior Professorate Institute) in Argentina. I worked as a teacher for 6 years in Argentina, before moving to Italy. In Italy, I founded my own preschool/kinder, “CocoDrago” based on the Reggio Emilio learning system for 8 years. Soon after coming to Texas and learning English, I taught Spanish at Montessori New Beginnings Schools for 4 years. For the next 3 years after that, I was a teacher at The Reading Ranch Preschool and Tutorial Center.

During the summer of 2008, I went to Spain (with my family) and received my certification for “Spanish as a Second Language” from the University of Salamanca. I am looking forward to bringing all my experience, skills, and passion to Spanish on Wheels.
