About Me
italki teacher since Apr 21, 2015Me as a Teacher
I love teaching Spanish and interacting with my students. I am empathetic, easily identify the student´s needs, and know how to make the best of each lesson. I have studied languages myself all my life and I fully understand the difficulties of my students. I like to make good use of class time, so I quickly identify problems and offer effective teaching solutions. My classes are fun, enjoyable, and productive.
My way of teaching is very effective for intermediate and advanced students, this is why I DO NOT TEACH BEGINNERS.My lessons & teaching style
My way of teaching is very effective for intermediate and advanced students, this is why I DO NOT TEACH BEGINNERS.
I begin my lessons by correcting my students' writings so that I can quickly identify what needs to be corrected. I send students the corrected document compared to the original, and then we do grammar exercises related to the mistakes found. We end the lesson with Spanish jokes, so students learn many colloquial expressions and how people actually speak.My teaching material
