About Me
italki teacher since Jan 3, 2018InterestsTechTravelMusicArtHistory
I am a professional teacher with more than 22 years experience (10 years online teaching experience). Our classes and materials will be dynamic, related to cultural manifestations and personalized to your necessities. I will also provide you with out-of-classes support and homework reviews if you need. I lived in England for 10 years improving my accent and learning about the British culture first hand. I can help you progress in your language learning with a communicative approach. You will feel the improvement class on class and realize that speaking another language is not as complicated as it may seem.Me as a Teacher
I have been teaching languages since my secondary school years, as I was the best language student in my class. Helping my fellow students with their needs really put me on the path of becoming a teacher. For the last 7 years I have been working professionally as a teacher and a translator, in classrooms, face-to-face, individual and online. I studied English Philology (language and literature) at the university of Santiago de Compostela, and as soon as I finished I went to live to the Uk.My lessons & teaching style
My style is really communicative and always making you feel comfortable in our conversations. If I detect a mistake I will correct you and explain why some choices are better than others for that specific situation. We will review grammar if I think it is necessary. After each class I will send you a document with all the relevant points, vocabulary and grammar corrections that we worked together in the class. If you need/want specific materials to work in your own time I could provide you some.My teaching material

My first full lesson with Marcos - he’s a brilliant teacher who quickly finds solutions to any problems I have in conversation as well as giving me alternative expressions - giving me a good understanding of how to switch between colloquial and more formal Spanish. Would highly recommend Marcos - great hour of conversation!

Marcos is prepared, patient, and goes above and beyond to help me in my Spanish., especially in my speaking. I always feel nervous speaking in Spanish, however Marcos is fantastic at letting me speak and then to give me guidance with the best phrase and explanation. ¡Gracias Marcos! I am looking forward to having a lesson with you again!
