Eva Paulino Bueno, Ph. D., hails from Brazil, where she first decided that she wanted to become a teacher and a writer. She has an M. A. in English literature from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, and a Ph. D. in Hispanic Languages and Literature from the University of Pittsburgh. Bueno enjoys teaching the Spanish language as well as the Portuguese language and related literatures. In all her classes, Bueno strives to help students become better listeners, better speakers and better readers of the literary, cultural, historical and political nuances of Latin America and of Spain. This will enable them to communicate better, both in oral and in written form, and to become good will ambassadors, worthy representatives of the Marianist charisma in the world, especially in the Hispanic world.
