Me as a Teacher
I have a wide understanding of technical and scientific language in both languages. I can also talk on business or politics. My main interest is to teach you how to build your language skills with a solid base, so there won't be any empty or weak points. I'm patient, encouraging, and not self-compliant, which means I'll always motivate you and give you the tools to keep improving.
Tengo un amplio conocimiento de lenguaje tecnico y cientifico en ambos idiomas, tambien puedo hablar sobre negocios o politica.

Rafa is really really good at correcting me on every mistake.. which I REALLY appreciate, and is something I don't often see in teachers and definitely something that friends won't do when you practice with them. But being corrected on every mistake is what I need to improve and stop making those same mistakes. So thank you!
