About the Director 

Roxi Lang is a MN-licensed 7-12th grade Spanish Teacher with 10+ years of teaching  Spanish 4th-college-age in public and private schools.  She has a Master of Arts in Teaching and is bilingual in Spanish and English with advanced fluency according to the ACFL proficiency guidelines.  She has lived abroad, has dual citizenship, and is familiar with various Spanish-speaking cultures, but she is most familiar with Mexico, Costa Rica, Spain, and Argentina. She has traveled extensively in Europe and has visited northern Africa and the United Arab Emirates and has family in West Africa.  She is a practicum away from extending her teaching license down to kindergarten.  In recent years she has worked with youth of all ages for various non-profits, but with a special focus on preschool through middle school.  After providing math support for K-3rd graders during the 2022-23 school year, her new love is teaching math to that crucial age.  No matter what age or subject, Roxi enjoys getting to know her students well, is fascinated by all the ways that people learn and loves to facilitate learning and watch students' confidence soar.  Mrs. Lang believes a great education is not only about acquiring skills and knowledge, but also about developing the character and mindset to be a confident lifelong learner who respects others, knows how to ask the right questions, and is ready to break down and tackle a challenge.

Mrs. Lang enjoys spending time with family, fishing with her husband, traveling, hiking, cooking, watching thoughtful or lighthearted movies, gardening, tennis, reading about advances in science and technology, visiting museums and art galleries, connecting with friends far and wide, and having fun while working hard! She doesn't love to attend exercise classes but puts a priority on them because she knows they are good for her.  She enjoys working with new people, learning new things, staying current while helping others stay current and healthy in an ever-changing world.  She is active in her church and is passionate about building an encouraging community that supports the health and well-being of all.
