¡Hola! Soy profesora colombiana de español con más de 15 años de experiencia enseñando a estudiantes de todo el mundo. Mi especialidad es la conversación práctica y adaptar cada lección a tus metas, ya sea para viajar, trabajar o dominar el idioma. Como amante del cine y la naturaleza, integro cultura y situaciones reales en mis clases para hacerlas dinámicas y relevantes. ¡Aprenderás hablando desde el primer día!Me as a Teacher
I got a BA Degree in Modern Languages from Universidad del Magdalena in 2004 Colombia. I have been teaching Spanish as a Second Language since 2008 in my city but I started to teach Spanish via Skype in 2013. So I have experience teaching students from different countries. My lessons & teaching style
I have developed an eclectic methodology. I basically study my students to find their way of learning and then I plan a course according to their needs because each student has a different kind of learning. My lessons are designed according to what each student needs to learn. I like to use several activities (grammar, reading, listening, speaking, and writing).My teaching material

Paola asked me what topics I wanted to work on and today, she provided a lesson on three of those topics that I struggle with. She provided homework as well to help me practice. I appreciate her patience when I need her to explain something that I didn't understand very well.

Paola did not add me on Skype, but once we got the lesson started it was fantastic.
She spoke mostly Spanish, which is what I want, and I learnt lots of new vocabulary and was able to use it.
There was a slight time lag with the video compared to the audio.
I would love to chat to Paola again!

I had my first. lass with Paola. She is a very patient teacher, and she offered great corrections during our conversations, which is exactly what is needed in order to improve. She was funny, personable, and very knowledgeable.
