About the Teacher

All classes are taught by the Founder of Open Door Spanish, Kristen Lansdale.

Kristen has been teaching Spanish for over a decade, including online classes and eight years of teaching intermediate and middle school students at Santa Catalina School, an independent K-12 school in Monterey, CA.

As an undergraduate at Stanford University, Kristen minored in Spanish and has since gone on to receive her K-12 Spanish teaching credential. Kristen has studied and lived abroad in Spain, Chile, and Ecuador. She loves incorporating her joy for the language and its many Spanish speaking countries and cultures into her classes.

"I highly recommend Kristen's classes! My 6 year old has learned so much and looks forward to class each week!"
