About Me

italki teacher since Dec 9, 2021

InterestsWritingScienceTravel

Hi! I'm 22 years old and just graduated from college with degrees in Ecology and Literature. I was born and have lived in the United States, but both of my parents and my entire extended family are from Mexico. I love writing stories, bird watching (I love birds!), and sitting by lakes. I love all kinds of movies, from rom-coms to horror.

Me as a Teacher

I've spent my whole life helping people learn new languages--especially helping my Spanish-speaking Grandma learn English. I know learning a new language is difficult, so I'm here to encourage you and help you!

My lessons & teaching style

We can talk about anything you like to help strengthen your conversational skills. If you'd like more structure, we can choose books to read and discuss them together. I'm very patient and used to helping people find the word they're looking for.

My first class was very informative. Mariel stayed on topic and pushed me with the conversational dialogue. She really helped me understand my deficiencies and where to focus on for a future lesson at my pace. A+.
