Anna G.
Anna's Program
Hi everyone, my name is Anna and I'm teaching in Madrid this year! I recently graduated from Carleton College, where I studied Biology and Spanish. In my free time you'll find me baking, watching fútbol (Hala Madrid), or taking a long walk. There's nothing I love more than sharing good food, being around friends and family, and exploring a new place. I'm excited to share my time here with you!
