I'm Miguel. Born and raised in the Philippines. I have a business degree and a TEFL certification.
I've had a corporate job for over 4 years and then I decided to resign and move to Europe.
I worked in Madrid as an English language assistant and I also taught English as a private tutor.
I love music - I play the guitar, drums, and the harmonica.
I play basketball and chess. I read a lot about business and philosophy. I also do street photography and I write a lot.
I am also a language learner! I self-studied French and Spanish, my Italian and Portuguese are conversational, my Russian is mediocre and I'd get back to German and Chinese again soon. I'm now learning Czech!

การสร้างของฉัน
ฉันในฐานะผู้สอน
Very patient - mistakes are necessary to learn the language!
Very supportive - you can ask any questions or make an effort to speak and try new things
Meaningful conversations - we will have meaningful conversations so you can learn not only the language, but also the culture as well
บทเรียนและรูปแบบการสอนของฉัน
Conversational style - so you will be deeply immersed from the language from day 1!
It will be stress-free and engaging.
You speak most of the time! :)
I will also help you outside our classes! I really care about your language learning journey.
Edison is seriously the best- he's super patient and really cares about your learning. I feel like that's a large reason why I've made so much progress with him! Definitely take his classes if you want to learn how to express and articulate your thoughts :)
Salamat! This was very helpful to see where I needed improvement in vocabulary. Also appreciate that you were patient with me fumbling over my words. Thanks again!
Always great talking to Miguel. He’s very patient when I’m trying to figure out what to say and it’s easy to make mistakes in front of him without feeling embarrassed.
Edison is a wonderful teacher that I would highly recommend to other Tagalog learners. He is always patient with me and explains my mistakes in a calm and clear manner. He provides very clear learning materials, and reading that is appropriate for the student's level. Whenever I have a question, no matter how simple, he is always happy to answer it. I would strongly recommend Edison to any learner, no matter the level.
I’ve been having consistent Tagalog lessons with Edison and he is an excellent teacher! He is very patient, approachable and calm. He explains grammar and concepts in a way which is easy to understand. I’ve also picked up a lot of new everyday vocabulary during my lessons. Maraming Salamat Edison! 😊
