Elkin, Lusina / About Me

"Bienvenidos" to Sra. Elkin's web page!

I am originally from California and moved to Missouri 25 years ago. I received my bachelor’s degree in Foreign Language Education with an emphasis in Spanish from the University of Missouri and my Master’s degree in Education from Lindenwood University. I have taught all levels of Spanish for 16 years. I have participated in Multicultural programs and have traveled with students to various Spanish-speaking countries around the world. I am of Hispanic descent and have always spoken both English and Spanish. I am married and have two daughters, Kathryn 26 and Alex 21. In my spare time I enjoy watching my Mexican soap operas, home decorating and travel shows, reading, canoeing, traveling and babysitting my 3 year old granddaughter.
