I´m Sandra, from Buenos Aires. I have been teaching languages for many, many years to a lot of different people so I´ve acquired a lot of experience. It´s not only just loving Spanish and English as languages and as a huge part of two interesting cultures. It´s helping people to feel good about learning and communicating in a language which is not their mother-tongue: that´s so so valuable and exciting!
Apart from languages there are a number of things I also like a lot: travelling, working out, watching films, gardening and last but not least, sharing time with muy friends, my family and my two lovely cats.Me as a Teacher
I´ve been fascinated with languages, mainly Spanish and English, since I was a kid. That´s why I´m so passionate and committed about teaching them. In my view, this is what it is about: guiding, sharing, encouraging and interchanging all we´ve got to become better and happier people.My lessons & teaching style
Thorughout all these years as a teacher I´ve learnt at least one thing: the center of the class is the student, so he or she should be the one who speaks and participates the most. That´s why my approach is communicative and student centered.
Something which is also key, in my opinion, is fun. The more relaxed the lesson is, the easier and faster, the learning.
I also believe that a variety of activities is not only engaging but really effective so I include a range of tasks to practise each skill in all possible ways.My teaching material

I am always so motivated after my lessons with Sandra to learn so much more. I enjoy the fact that she has a different activity for me each week that’s at my comprehension level and often checks in with me to ensure I understand before moving on to the next topic.

I had such a wonderful first lesson and I can’t wait to learn more with Sandra. She was very warm and pleasant to talk with about my Spanish learning goals and creating a plan for our future classes together.
