Me as a Teacher
Como profesora soy una persona muy atenta, me gusta que la persona a la que doy clases pueda comprender lo que les enseño por lo que no tengo miedo de utilizar diferentes métodos de enseñanza, de utilizar materiales con soporte audiovisual y de realizar juegos que puedan hacer que el alumno se relaje. Además de enseñar español, he enseñado mercadeo estratégico en la Universidad.
As a teacher I am a very attentive person, I put a lot of effort for my students to understand, so I am not afraid to use different teaching methods, or to use materials with audiovisual support and to play games to make my students feel more relaxed. I've also taugh strategic marketing in University.
My lessons & teaching style
Mis clases son divertidas, utilizo tanto el método deductivo como el inductivo, me gusta tratar de que el alumno participe y descubra por sí mismo algunas cosas, pero también considero que es necesario darle herramientas, guías y explicaciones claras.
My classes are fun, I use both the deductive and inductive methods, I like to try to get the student to participate and discover some things for themselves, but I also consider that it is necessary to give them tools, guides and clear explanations.

Damaris is a great Spanish teacher. I live in Houston and am a beginner at learning the language. Damaris is very patient and good at explaining the topics. The lessons fly by (I usually do 45-minute lessons twice weekly). Clay

She was fabulous - just what I needed because my Spanish listening and speaking skills are at a beginning level, although I can read it. She is friendly, helpful, and very encouraging. I had to end lesson 10 minutes early because I am traveling. I will reach out to her again.
