CERTIFIED ADULT AND CHILDREN'S TEACHER WITH OVER 16 YEARS OF TEACHING EXPERIENCE ¡Hola! I’m Ruth, an Argentine-Spanish teacher with 25 years immersed in Brazilian culture—fluent in Spanish, Portuguese, and English. As a certified DELE/SIELE exam coach and pedagogy graduate, I specialize in the *Direct Method*: helping adults and kids *acquire* Spanish naturally, like their first language. Whether you’re prepping for exams or craving fluency, let’s turn words into confidence—starting Day 1! I have been working since 2008 as Spanish and Portuguese teacher/translator in several companies, including multinationals, language schools and preparing students for the SIELE and DELE exams with the Instituto Cervantes. My classes use the DIRECT APPROACH, (where the student acquires fluency in a second language in 1/4 of the time) because I teach the student to ACQUIRE the language instead of learning it, just as he once acquired his mother tongue, naturally, unconsciously and spontaneously. That's why my classes are all designed with Power Point animations where the student will see, listen, understand, repeat, answer questions... That is, he will speak Spanish from the first minute of the class and in the first? he will already know more than 100 new words. He can also have access to all the audios of the classes, to download them on his cell phone and the texts of readings and dictations.

I really like the direct method that Ruth uses mixing a blend of verbal, visual and sequential communication and felt like things stick better this way.

特别喜欢老师的教学方式，尤其是“以图促学”这一块。简单来说，就是通过图片引导我们去观察、思考和表达。这种教法让我感觉每节课都不是在被动地“听讲”，而是在主动地“探索”。老师巧妙地将知识点隐藏在图片背后，通过一步步追问，把我们的思维从浅层次的记忆引向深层次的分析和应用。By the way ,老师的狗狗很可爱~
