Hola! I'm Jose Angel, a 32 years old medical doctor from Venezuela who's interested in being your community tutor. I'm certified on skin and body aesthetics and among my hobbies you'll find reading, animation and pop culture, if any of this stands out to you I invite you to book a lesson with me today :)
Me as a Teacher
I'm a very versatile tutor and I love to tailor the lesson around our common interests and your goals, whether that is improving your professional Spanish or learning 'survival' Spanish before a trip.
I can also do full-immersion lessons, which means I will not use any English during the lesson if that is your preference :)
My lessons & teaching style
We'll speak of any shared interest and when there's a natural pause in the conversation, I'll send through the chat a list of corrections and/or phrases I feel we can improve the structure of, if there's a word I think would've better conveyed the meaning of what you wanted to say I'll send it as well so we can go over it, I'll also type out any word I feel we can improve the pronunciation of.
The goal of this is for you to notice (and correct!) any mistake you might be unaware you are making, as well as improving the structure of your sentences and your vocabulary so your Spanish sounds as natural as possible. You can decide how thorough the corrections will be :)

Jose is always really fun to talk to! I have been busy lately and haven't had as much time to do Spanish lessons, but Jose inspires me to find the time, because I enjoy our weekly conversations so much. I have personally recommended him to some of my friends in the medical field, but I'd also recommend him to anyone learning with comprehensible input (CI)!
Note: I would not be surprised if he's also a good teacher if you are using a method other than comprehensible input, but I don't have any experience with that — I feel like he has adapted his teaching style perfectly to what I needed!

My Spanish is improving so much with José! As an aside, I used the patient questions and follow-up questions that José helped me with (which we created in a previous class) in order for me to collect a clinical history, and it went super smoothly! Everything was clearly answered, and I got all the information I needed from the patient!!! He's currently helping me learn how to write clinical observations in Spanish. He has been so integral to my professional growth, and he's always so supportive and understanding. He's so fun to talk to so sometimes I get sidetracked and talk about non-clinical things (which is also great practice) and he also makes space for that, but he's also really thoughtful and reminds me and brings me back to the clinical stuff so that I get that done as well. He's such a wonderful teacher, I really appreciate his expertise, personality, his feedback, and his encouragement!

Jose is one of the best teachers of any subject I have ever met. The structure of his classes are great and you feel accomplished by the end. On top of this he focuses on your needs and is a medical professional. Really an amazing teacher, I highly recommend to anyone do your classes with Jose!

Another great lesson with Jose! I am usually looking for an interesting conversation partner in these lessons, and Jose always delivers in spades!

Jose is absolutely amazing, this is the best lesson I've had on Italki. He discussed learning options and was super encouraging! I love the active learning style and he is so prepared and easy to talk to! Highly recommend!!
