Hola! My name is Gabriela, I am 27 years old and I am from the coast of Ecuador. I love traveling, dancing bachata, and meeting new people and cultures!
I love series and podcasts about serial killers, Japanese animation and I'm a little bit too obsessed with K-dramas.
I hold a master's degree in International Relations and Political Science, so I'm open and happy to discuss any topic related to current conflicts, diplomacy, wars, international relations, politics, and more.
I am very social and easy-going and I cannot wait to meet you!
Meine Kreationen
Ich als Lehrkraft
As a kid my favorite teachers were patient, fun, and easy to connect with. But most importantly, they knew how to get to my level and help me understand and internalize the lessons, without having to memorize things that I don't get. That's what I bring to the table as a teacher.
I will adapt my style to the needs and level of my students. It's important to push the students to engage at a level a little bit ahead of them so they can make progress, but not too far ahead so they feel frustrated and give up.
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My goal is to get you to speak Spanish naturally without translating it in your head. No matter what level you're at, we will start speaking from Day 1. This is exactly how babies learn to speak a language, without having to go through vocabulary drills or rehearse complicated grammar rules.
Unfortunately, too many students avoid speaking a new language because they are afraid to make mistakes or be judged so they never try practicing.
That's why in my classes, we'll have conversations from Day 1, because the path to fluency is being able to communicate naturally in Spanish, even with small errors. Once you do that, it's time to work on fixing those errors and improving your grammar.
Gabriela found material perfectly suited to the area (international affairs) and level that I'm studying for me to review in advance, and then led a very engaging discussion with me on the subject. It's only my first full lesson, but I feel very motivated to keep learning and can tell that this method of teaching works well for me. Highly recommend!
