About Me
italki teacher since Apr 13, 2020Interest topicSports & FitnessArtMusic
Hi, my name is Juan Pablo and I was born and raised in Mexico. At the university I studied Communication and I have worked in the photography filed with communities and different people from all around the world.
For me, learning Spanish opened doors to new and exciting cultures. I enjoy traveling, learning about the culture, people, customs and traditions. When traveling I try to look for the hidden little restaurants and try the local cuisine to know better the culture and the locals. I like hiking; breathing in the fresh air and enjoying beautiful sceneries to take pictures and enjoy a coffee cup.
I also enjoy listen to music, photography and a shared moments with my family and friends.Me as a Teacher
I have a Bachelor’s degree in Communications. I have experience teaching Spanish in a traditional classroom setting and as well online. I worked in Finland and Mexico teaching Spanish to adults. I have worked as an online teacher giving individual classes.
As a teacher, I believe that we can help the students to grow as learners and to reach their learning goals.
I am enthusiastic about education and always strive to do the best for my students. I have experience in planning authentic and interesting lessons.My lessons & teaching style
I believe that using different engaging activities keep students interested, motivated and support their learning. I conduct the classes according to your interest and skill level. I will support you to meet your individual learning goals, whether they are confidence in conversation, vocabulary for a certain topic, grammar or something else.
We can use materials, such as books, exercise sheets and articles, to support your learning or videos and music to practice listening skills and to learn new vocabulary. It’s up to you, I will customize the lesson especially for you.My teaching material

Juan Pablo is an incredibly intuitive and patient teacher. He’s not only friendly, he’s interested and engaged in a very impressive way. For example, I haven’t had a lesson in several months due to some work-related time constraints but he was able to pick up right where we left off and the lesson was a pleasure. I have learned more with Juan Pablo in these short sessions than I would have in a conventional in-person conversational Spanish class, I believe. Thanks so much for your professionalism and care, JP Barba!

Juan Pablo is the BEST! Seriously, sign up for a lesson with him. He is so knowledgeable, patient, supportive, and kind. He has helped me improve my Spanish skills so much while deepening my understanding of how the language is rooted in culture. Thanks for being so awseome Juan Pablo!

Juan Pablo is a great teacher. Every lesson goes by so quickly you will hardly realize that you are learning a great deal. He really knows the grammar and usage rules of the Spanish language and has a good sense of when to switch from Spanish to English to make certain that you understand a concept.
