Hello,
My name is Erika, I have been teaching professionally for over 4 years, person to person, and almost two years on line. I have studies of communicative methodology for ELE (Español como lengua extranjera) in Barcelona.
My lessons are completely in Spanish, nevertheless, I speak English and Italian in an advance level. I'd like to think of my classes as a way of full immersion for those language learners who work or study and, because of their lack of time can not have this kind of approach to the language. I have a lot of material to share with you via internet, nice and didactic presentations that can make each lesson much more fun and effective.
I like to program my classes according to each student needs, so each grammatical theme will be accompanied with the context that the student will appreciate the most and, which is more important, will be more helpful to them.
Before being a teacher, I have worked in different areas as a business secretary. This experience has help me to program my EFE lessons for those professionals that need the Spanish language to work. (EFE stands for Español para fines específicos in English means Spanish for specific purposes),
I also provide short courses to help students that are planning a short trip to any Spanish country in order to help them learn what it would be fundamental to make their trip much more valuable.
