Áine Lanza Founder & Instructor
Meet Áine!
Welcome to BilinguaLink! I’m Áine Lanza, a dedicated educator passionate about helping students grow in their writing and language skills. As a bilingual teacher fluent in Spanish and English, I bring a unique perspective to language learning and literacy education.
I was homeschooled K-12—an experience that shaped my deep appreciation for education. I later earned my Bachelor’s degree from NCSU and became a registered IEW instructor, allowing me to equip students with the tools they need to excel in writing.
With over seven years of experience teaching K-12, I specialize in IEW writing, English Language Arts, and Spanish. My goal is to create engaging, structured classes that help students gain confidence in their writing and communication skills.
In addition to teaching, I now work as a project manager, earning my CAPM in March 2025. This new journey has encouraged me to bring even more well-planned projects and classes to my current teaching families. I’m excited to incorporate these new skills into my work, ensuring that each educational experience is organized, intentional, and enriching.
At BilinguaLink, my mission is to provide quality homeschool classes where students feel encouraged, challenged, and supported. I believe in teaching with excellence and heart, tailoring lessons to fit each student’s learning style.
Along with my husband, Erick Lanza, we offer a variety of courses, including:
✅ IEW Writing & Grammar – Mastering sentence structure, essays, and writing fluency.
✅ Spanish Immersion & Advanced Spanish – Engaging lessons for both beginners and heritage speakers.
✅ Early Learning & Literacy – Fun and interactive classes for young learners.
I’d love to partner with your family on this learning journey! Feel free to explore our class offerings and reach out with any questions.
