About Me
italki teacher since Aug 9, 2021Interest topicMusicReadingTravel
Hi there! My name is David. I am from Teruel, a small town in northeastern Spain.
I´ve lived in different countries such as Turkey, Portugal or China, where I worked as a Spanish teacher.
I love travelling, meeting different people and discovering new places. As a teacher abroad, I had the chance to do so. I also like languages, music, literature, outdoor sports, history, politics... So probably we have interesting topic to talk about.
Since 2020 I am online teacher located at different places. I´ve had students from all over the world who had enriched my experience as a teacher and a as a person.Me as a Teacher
I have a degree in Teaching and posgraduate in teaching Spanish as a second languge. Also several training courses.
Over the course of my career I have work in different countries and schools, with students of different ages, grades and nationalities. I've prepared students for official exams such as DELE and ICGSE (Cambridge). I am DELE accredited examiner by Instituto Cervantes.My lessons & teaching style
When I teach Spanish, I like to start with simple communicative situations and, little by little, incorporate the components of language such as grammar and vocabulary, so that the use of language will be as close as possible to reality.
Nevertheless, I know that every student has his/her own learning style and different goals, therefore, I think it is important to have a continuous feedback to go through the right path at the right pace to reach the set target.My teaching material

Today I learned a lot about relationships between people and how to describe them. I had a lot of fun with the activity we did and I was able to use the the information David taught me about how family names are used to see the relationships between two people. It was a lot of fun. I look forward to my next lesson!
