About Me
italki teacher since May 30, 2018InterestsArtHistoryFoodFilms & TV SeriesTravel
I’m a very open person to different cultures. I’m passionate about technology, science, traveling, and tourism. I also like to draw and cook; those are two things I love to do. In my free time, I listen to music and share this time with my mates and friends. Hiking near the city is something that I adore too. Lastly, but not least, I work out and do yoga to train my body and soul.
I try to be the kind of friend who seeks the best way to teach and improve your Spanish.Me as a Teacher
I have more than 10 years of experience teaching Spanish. I’m more than just a teacher; I try to be the kind of friend who seeks the best way to teach and improve your Spanish. I’m very dynamic, and I like to use as many technological resources as I can for our classes. Above all, I’d like you to gain confidence when you’re learning Spanish with me.My lessons & teaching style
My classes follow the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). In our first class, I make a general diagnosis of what you know and your level in Spanish. I also inquire about your interests to offer the best option for your learning. Our classes include grammar, listening, writing, reading, pronunciation, and conversation. From you as my student, I expect motivation, respect, and commitment in the classes because we need to work together to achieve the proposed objectives.My teaching material

Quiero decirte que después de un año he aprendido mucho de este profesor. Él es muy profesional. Su punto fuerte es su enseñanza con visualizaciones. puedes pedirle cualquier cosa para aprender. frases cosas, coloquiales y cosas cotidianas de hispanohablantes. Realmente vale la pena probar este profesor. 👍🏾

Ricardo provided a good initial trial class. He quizzed my language skills and set expectations for moving forward with lessons. He cares about you meeting your goals and expresses good emotional connection.

Ricardo siempre está bien preparado para las lecciones y tiene una manera excepcional de enseñar el subjuntivo. Además es muy interesante hablar con él. Siempre me cuenta cosas interesantes sobre la vida en Colombia y a veces sobre otras partes del mundo.
