About Me
italki teacher since Aug 14, 2019Me as a Teacher
I'm traveling in Europe, so my shcedule may change**
In my teaching practice I like to include a wide variety of resources depending on the students learning styles and preferences. I take into account the student’s motivation and likes in order to provide a great experience while learning.
I also agree with students about the emphasis they would like to have in their lessons like grammar, vocabulary, conversation, etc.My lessons & teaching style
I really like conversation classes. Based on real life situations we will be able to practice the basic skills to learn a language: grammar, listening, speaking Reading and Writing as well as learning vocabulary. I can adapt my language to your level so that you understand better. I can also talk with you about a wide variety of topics and help you learn the language.
I also love teaching by using songs, especially those which have a positive message. Music lyrics, just as music itself, are powerful means of communication, a way to express the authors’ feelings, perceptions, culture and beliefs about the world. All language skills can be worked through songs and it is a fun way too!Certificates

I had an excellent first lesson with Johanna! She was patient and encouraging. Even though I am at a beginner level, Johanna was so easy to speak with and before I knew it the class was over and we had only used Spanish the entire time! She tailored the lesson to meet my needs and work with me at my level. I look forward to booking more classes with her. I highly recommend taking a class with Johanna.

Sereia was very kind and helpful in my lesson. She is an experienced teacher and made me feel comfortable learning particularly with me being at a beginner level. We also had a lot of common interests which always helps! Thank you for a great first lesson, I look forward to many more.

Sara es una profesora muy comprensiva y paciente, lo que me hizo sentir cómoda durante toda la conversación. Me ayudó a reflexionar sobre varios aspectos de mi español y los miedos relacionados con la comunicación en general. Fue una clase de prueba interesante y útil :)
