About Me
italki teacher since Nov 7, 2011
InterestsFoodTravelHistory
When it comes to hobbies, hiking, travelling, tennis comes to mind first. I love being outdoors but also enjoy lingering over a coffee and a good book at home. I'm also interested in everything having to do with food and I usually cook quite a bit at home but go for tapas and dine out quite often too. When it comes to music, I like listening to everything these days but my favourite genres are jazz and folk music from Scandinavia. I like meeting from around the world, most of my friends are English speakers so that's basically how I learned the language when people ask. I'm currently learning French, Norwegian and Italian but it depends on the time I have.

Me as a Teacher
Both my parents were teachers so I guess teaching is in my blood. Whenever a student reaches a goal, speaks fluently or passes an exam, it makes me so happy and so proud of him/her. It's as simply (or complicated) as that. As a student of many other languages I know the struggles the students go through, so my job is not only teaching the language per se but also identifying these obstacles and help the students tackle them
My lessons & teaching style
I've been using Google Drive (Google docs and so on) since 2011 and I still love it. I have my own material and my own method but I keep improving and redoing all my exercises for my students benefit. I also work with different books depending on the students level and I can provide with useful stuff (such as videos, audios) regarding Spanish

Reading comments before booking a lesson, I had very high expectations about a lesson with Andrés...and it was AMAZING in reality!!! He created a comfortable, friendly atmosphere where I could easily express myself in Spanish, he was patient and supportive which is extremely important. He encouraged me to speak more, gently correcting my mistakes. It was the best lesson ever! I'm full of motivation to continue learning Spanish! THANK YOU, Andrés! :)

I have been studying Spanish for many years and have tried many different teachers and methods of learning the language. Now I've been working with Andres for two years and I can confidently say that he really is the best language teacher I've ever had. In addition to being great at his job and explaining everything very clearly, he also has a talent for adjusting his teaching style to the student. He will figure out your level, your interests, whether you prefer a more formal or relaxed style of teaching and will adjust to you. I'm so grateful to have found him! Muchisimas gracias Andres!

Andres is the best Spanish teacher I have ever met at italki. He is patient and nice, always well-prepared with amazing materials that can help you speak quickly and confidently. Also, he is a great listener, allowing you to learn at your own pace. Highly highly recommended!!!!!!
