Biography
Buenos días, familia de Santa Rita! ~ Bienvenidos a la clase de español K-4.
My name is Sofía Jiménez, and I come from the land of "Enchantment,"... Colombia! (Location and cultural background of the movie Encanto.) I was born in Barranquilla, a beautiful, coastal city along the Caribbean Sea. I studied at the Colegio Eucharistico de la Merced a Catholic school run by the sisters of the order of La Merced. I then studied interior design and architecture. In my younger years, I was a teacher at the María Auxiliadoraschool in Barranquilla. Eventually, I traveled to the United States in 1999 and studied English at the University of Dallas in Irving. I also began and later completed my studies in education. I have now taught for over fifteen years! I am married and have two wonderful children. ¡Noticia de última hora! (Important note!) I am awaiting the arrival of my first beautiful granddaughter. She will be born very soon! I am very excited to be a part of the St. Rita family.
