About Me

italki teacher since Dec 9, 2021

InterestsReadingEnvironment & NatureScienceTravelWriting

Hello! I'm in my late 20's, studying ecology as a graduate student. I do research on birds! My entire family is from Mexico, so I grew up speaking both Spanish and English. In my free time, I study Korean, write a novel, and eat ice cream.

Me as a Teacher

I've spent my whole life helping people learn new languages--especially helping my Spanish-speaking Grandma learn English. I know learning a new language is difficult, so I'm here to encourage you and help you!

My lessons & teaching style

My lessons are all conversation practice. This means we will have a regular conversation. If you make mistakes, I will correct your grammar and help you find more natural ways of expressing yourself. My lessons are best suited for people B1 and above.

My first class was very informative. Mariel stayed on topic and pushed me with the conversational dialogue. She really helped me understand my deficiencies and where to focus on for a future lesson at my pace. A+.
