Me as a Teacher
I´m a professional Spanish teacher since 2010.
I teach online since 2016
and also in a Spanish school in Fuerteventura, in the Canary Islands since 2013.
Spanish Teaching Certificate (May 2010) from International House Madrid
Master Degree for Spanish Teaching (2018) from Barcelona University - UNIBA.
Flipped Learning Education (2019) from FLGlobal Inc.
I am patient and sweet but I never give up!! I believe in active learning and in using an individual approach which helps every student to learn fast and effectively in its own way. I guide my students in finding the best tools, building up a personal study weekly plan which helps them to be consistent and improve faster :))
My lessons & teaching style
How are the lessons? They are adapted to the needs and interests of every student using a:
✔ Dynamic and communicative focused method, which will help you to face real situations in Spanish. We will create a relaxed atmosphere where you will feel at ease and confident to speak.
✔ Encouraged to bring in your own topics and ideas, we will create customized lessons adapted to your needs. We can focus on learning specific vocabulary, specific tenses (past tenses, conditional, subjuntivo…) always enhancing your conversational skills. We will pay attention to the specific grammar brought up by natural communication, helping you to become quickly a competent speaker.

Sara is awesome! She is friendly, positive, organised and keeps a log of all of the words that I didn't know or struggled with during the class (which I have access to during the class, and afterwards to review). She focuses on themes that are interesting to me, and is engaging in the conversation. She's very good at explaining grammatical rules where possible, but doesn't overwhelm me with theory as I had asked her to focus on conversations in Spanish

As I expected, it was wonderful meeting with Sara. She's familiar enough with the English language to assist me when I need it. I took a few months off of practicing to recovery from surgery and my language practicing was limited. She was patient with me and helped me remember and improve from my mistakes. Looking forward to the next lesson!
