I'm a person who likes challenges. I'm a Cuban currently living in Serbia. Graduated from Linguistics, one of the best decisions of my life and I'm also a certified ESL teacher by Magic Ears University. I'm very proud of being Cuban because of my cultural legacy and I also consider myself as a world citizen.I love learning and teaching. My students range age vary from kinder to late 50ths.Over my teaching years I've discovered that I really enjoy working with kids and at the same time the positive result in adults is rewarding.I also love surfing, snowboarding and other activities related with self development.Let's meet, I can't wait to hear your experiences!

Me as a Teacher
I talk and allow my student to talk and repeat but also I encourage them to create and interact. .I'm very persistent and patient.I like to learn from my students and I reward them while they do a great job. I do consider that any toy,song,video or phrase is meant to be used in a lesson, it's impossible to run out of subjects but we do have to plan in order focus in what really matters which to practice and master the contents. Knowing is power but applying that knowledge is even more powerful.I will help you to do it, Let's try !!!
My lessons & teaching style
I speak Spanish with a latin accent from Cuba,I do love and speak french from France and I speak English, american English, however we will always discuss your preferences. I'm learning Japanese and Russian and I have a language advice for you : always seek to keep your levels of anxiety as low as possible! That's one of my strategies while working with kids or adults you will always feel comfortable and if you make mistakes which could be normal them we well correct them in a very constructive and comfortable way.If you really want to learn, I'm your golden fish.If you take action ,we will definitely do it together.See you soon!!

She is great! Violili immediately made a point to figure out my goals and how she could help me improve. She's a great teacher and I enjoyed my session with her.
