Mrs. Rina Yurcak
My name is Rina Yurcak and I was originally born in Guatemala City, Central America. I moved to United States when I got married and have been teaching Spanish K-8th grades in Arizona for the past 20 years. My approach to learning languages mirrors the way children acquire their first language. It follows a natural process that uses memory, songs, games and storytelling. It is my goal to help the students to be a life long learners, foster the love of learning another language and to help students develop an appreciation for cultures different than their own. This will ensure their succes in our global society, both in their future workplace and relationships.
