Me as a Teacher
I have a diploma in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL/TESOL), and have learned several methodologies and approaches to teaching depending on the many ways that a person can learn. I have taught math, physics, and English to high school and college students. I enjoy teaching and love learning from everyone that I get to know. I love speaking and writing in my language and have read much of its literature. Because of my broad vocabulary and many interests, I can help you learn the language of a wide range of topics that are of specific interest to you.
My lessons & teaching style
From my own experience, I know the best way to learn any subject is to genuinely enjoy it. And the best way to learn a language is learning and practicing new words and expressions in a safe, encouraging, and enjoyable context. Regardless of your level, you will be speaking Spanish with me from the very first class. Over time, I'll choose topics that I know you are interested in. My years of learning English have shown me that you learn a language most effectively when you practice listening, reading, and writing using resources that you personally find useful. I will help you connect the Spanish language to other meaningful areas of your life.
