As teacher, trial lessons are focused on knowing the student, a first contact to know what the student needs to learn Spanish properly, regardless the student level. In this lessons I like to talk and come to an agreement with the student about how the lessons work. I consider myself a flexible teacher who likes to listen to the student. These trial lessons will also have an informational purpose for the student. In the end of the trial lesson I will give some  tips to the student and I will inform them about the plan we should follow so that the learning of the Spanish language is efficient and productive in all senses.

This is a course created for all students who usually have lessons with me or want to start having lessons with me. For those who do not know me as a Spanish teacher, I would say that I am a very dynamic and attentive teacher, I give special importance to communication, without leaving grammar aside. I believe that grammar is important as long as it provides a communicative approach. I also adapt to all the needs, levels and objectives of the student. Every day I look for useful material and tools for my Spanish classes, so I can help the student with very appropriate material that I have been saving and using all this time with the students for their correct learning. Within this material there are images, videos, grammar exercises, vocabulary, communicative activities... etc.

As for students who want to improve their communication skills or are interested in taking a complete conversation class, let me tell you that this is also a course designed for students who want to develop their communication skills and achieve more fluency in Spanish. In my experience, this aspect of language learning is very relevant. I adapt to all the needs of my students, including any topic that the students wish to cover in this class. I consider it very important that students practise the language in a communicative way, because from my point of view, this is a crucial point in the learning of a language. Therefore, in this course, my main objective as a teacher is that students learn to use phrases, expressions and vocabulary as if they were in real life situations, such as in a hotel, in a supermarket, in a clothes shop, etc. I also use texts, articles to read and then comment and discuss, as well as videos for further discussion. This course is especially for those students who want to improve their communication skills.

If you have any questions or doubts, do not  hesitate to let me know. 

Best regards to all of you!

STANDARD & CONVERSATION COURSE

This course is focused and designed for those students who want to study and learn Spanish together. I adapt to the needs of both students.
