About AlmaLuna Spanish Language Services Founder Jessica Dover, CMI: A Spanish Language Specialist for over 7 years, Jessica earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Music for Trumpet Performance from the University of Colorado at Boulder. Her love of Spanish developed during an extended home-stay with a family in Mexico after graduation, and upon returning to the United States, Jessica found that many of her skills as a musician – listening, practice, repetition – could be applied to the mastery of Spanish. Since then, her interpreting experience has ranged from corporate negotiations and financial transactions to medical appointments and green card interviews. She is a Certified Medical Interpreter and an expert in all three modes of interpreting (consecutive, simultaneous, and sight translation). As a private and group Spanish teacher, Jessica’s method of focusing on real-life applications and examples of the Spanish language guides her students into not only meeting, but exceeding their goals. Jessica takes pride in the amount of thorough preparation and clarity that she provides for each and every lesson or interpreting session. As a result, her reputation as a Spanish-language “technician” has set her apart as one of the top teachers and on-call interpreters in Portland.
