Hola! I am Ligia “GiGi” Vasquez, a bilingual teacher with a passion for creativity and education. iBis Learning, our educational center, will open its doors soon! iBis means "Integrating Bilingual Immersion in Spanish", and its acronym represents a beautiful scarlet IBIS. I have developed a unique language approach rooted in multicultural, bi-literacy, and hands-on activities. I believe in learning by doing and learning through play to foster cognitive and emotional growth. I work with elementary, middle, and high school students to make language learning an exciting journey. “Play is the only way the highest intelligence of humankind can unfold.” -Joseph Chilton Pearce-author
