Episode summary Foreign Language can be a challenge for many of us, but it doesn’t have to be! Suzanne Gose talks with Julie Ross about the value of a second language for children and how to approach teaching it with Miss Mason’s methods. Guest biography I am a certified Texas Public School teacher who thrived on teaching in the public school system before we began our family. I stayed home with our firstborn, and I missed teaching so much that I reached out to our local community to tutor or host a small Spanish class. After that initial email, I received 42 replies the very next morning! So for 19 years now, I have been teaching Spanish and public speaking to homeschool students weekly in a classroom setting, most recently at the Community Homeschool Center in Bryan, Texas. I am a happily married mother of five children, small business owner, as well as a founder and board member of the Community Homeschool Center. My family and I love living on our small 15 acre farm here in Central Texas with our goats, chickens, turkeys, ducks, and rabbits. I thoroughly enjoy teaching my weekly Spanish classes, supporting homeschool endeavors of the community in any way possible, and striving to keep a happy, well-organized home.
