Master Lecturer in Spanish
Originally from California, Molly discovered her passion for the Spanish language as a first-year college student at Princeton and decided to make it her major.
Her interests include US Latino cultural production, heritage speakers, anti-racist classroom culture, alternative grading practices, and Latin American film. She has given talks and workshops on these topics at ACTFL, NECTFL, NEMLA and the National Symposium of Spanish as a Heritage Language.
In 2015, she developed an AP Spanish MOOC (massive open online course) on EdX that has enrolled over 30,000 students of all ages and nationalities. This course spawned two independent learning cohorts that still meet weekly. You can read more about that course here.
In her free time, Molly enjoys traveling, knitting, yoga, and social activism. She is the mother to two bilingual, Puerto Rican-American college students.
