¡Hola!
I'm Isabel and I come from Oaxaca, Mexico. I love analog photography and visual arts.
I finished my master's degree in TESOL (teaching English to speakers of other languages) and I'm currently working on my thesis. Being a second language learner myself, I understand the challenges but also the remarkable feelings that come with noticing your own progress.
Minha atuação como professor
I've taught both Spanish and English in Mexico (mostly to teenagers/young adults), always trying make my students feel comfortable so that they speak from day one. Creating an engaging lesson based on real material is key too, I believe this helps with motivation for learning, enjoyment of the class and retention.
Minhas aulas e estilo de ensino
Let's talk about your purposes, expectations, and needs beforehand and communicate throughout the process. I love the idea of an amusing learning experience, including lots of interesting material, activities, and why not, games, and a good laugh from time to time!
My teaching style is based on:
✔ The Immersion style: there will be exposure to Spanish (as much as possible) according to your level, using slow, clear and comprehensible language; gesticulation and visual aids are also included.
✔ Whole language approach: designed to help you learn in a natural way with authentic situations and materials. You'll construct your knowledge by doing (rather than receiving it).

I have taken around 100 classes with Isabel, there are a few things that I really like about her classes.
1. Isabel is very good at speaking to you at a level that you find comprehensible. As someone that started at a pretty low level she has always spoken to me with patience and clarity.
2. Isabel is very good at understanding your output. Obviously as learners our speech may have errors, Isabel manages to understand/decipher the point you are trying to make a very high percentage of the time.
3. Isabel has a lot of materials on a lot of different topics. Even after a large number of classes she always has new and interesting materials/videos for me to go through.
4. Isabel has high level of mental stamina. Classes are long and it's hard to stay mentally engaged for up to an hour of time. No matter where we are at in our class she is always giving corrections, asking clarifying questions, and providing useful information.
5. If needed, Isabel has excellent English.
Thanks!

I have been taking classes once a week for the past 8-9 months with Isabel and have been seriously learning Spanish for almost a year now. When I say she is the best I truly mean it. She is always prepared, punctual, patient, resourceful, organized, and is the essence of what a tutor should strive to be. Since I started classes with her my Spanish has improved significantly and quicker than I anticipated. She always corrects me or suggests more natural ways of phrases/sentences/expressions for me and let’s me finish my thoughts/sentences before correcting me which I appreciate. She always gives me opportunities to speak. Our classes are informative, interesting, and most importantly fun. If I have a question or need help understanding a concept (grammar, vocabulary, conjugations) she provides me with clarity. I will continue to book with her and hope to reach an advanced level with her.

I believe that Isabel is one of the best Spanish teachers on italki. She works hard to adapt lessons to your interest and needs. She has a great knowledge of English, and can explain things you might not be understanding in a way that you can understand. She is patient and lets you speak, giving helpful corrections when you need it. She is a kind and pleasant person who is very helpful. If you want to learn Spanish, try a lesson with Isabel, I don’t think you will regret it.

Isabel is great, she provides wonderful feedback and corrects without disturbing the conversation at all. She is very easy to talk to and helps lead the conversation. It is clear that she is focusing on helping me achieve my goals.

Wir hatten heute eine sehr angenehme Unterrichtsstunde. Meine Lehrerin Isabel hat mir immer Hilfestelung gegeben, wenn es notwendig war. Die Aufgaben waren teilweise anspruchsvoll für mich, aber das ist ja auch gut so.
