Ms. Iverson-Maggi received her B.A. in Spanish from South Dakota State University in 2004 and completed her M.A. in Spanish from Middlebury College of Vermont, 2005.
Angie is no stranger to the Spanish world. The day after high school graduation, she spent an intensive summer studying in the two Honduran cities of Copan and San Pedro Sula. Her junior year of college Angie studied in Valencia, Spain at the Universitat de Valencia and spent a year in Madrid, Spain working towards her Masters. Angie is actually Hispanic herself. Her mother is from Tegucigalpa, Honduras and her father is a native South Dakotan. She likes to incorporate in her classes the experiences she has had from her bi-cultural family and her time spent studying abroad.
Angie teaches intermediate and advanced language classes and also serves as the primary advisor to the Spanish club. As an alumna of SDSU, Angie is happy to have a chance to work with a new generation of SDSU students. Before teaching at SDSU, she taught Spanish to elementary and middle school students through a language program offered by the Brookings PTA and also taught several private English classes during her times in Spain.
She thanks her family (especially her parents), friends, and former language teachers for their support and encouragement in helping her to pursue her greatest passions in life: learning, teaching, and spreading awareness for languages.
