About Me
italki teacher since Apr 30, 2020InterestsTravelScienceHistoryFilms & TV SeriesReading
I'm the kind of a person who is always learning something new, either a language or a new subject. I also like to travel and meet new people from different cultures and share my experience with them. (Unfortunately, I don't teach kids, since it requires a total different approach) /
Soy una persona a quien le gusta estar siempre aprendiendo cosas nuevas, sea una lengua o algún asunto nuevo. A mí también me gusta bastante viajar y conocer a personas nuevas de otras cultura, así como compartir mis experiencias con ellas. /

I'm graduated in Arts in Spanish, English, and Portuguese . I've been working as a language teacher for over ten years, having the duty of helping my students achieve their goals, mainly if it involves communication in another language. /
Soy graduado en Letras en lengua española, inglés y portugués. He trabajado como profesor de lenguas desde hace más de diez años en los que he tomado como objetivo el de ayudar a mis alumnos a alcanzar sus objetivos, principalmente en lo que dice respeto a comunicarse en otro idioma. My lessons & teaching style
Throughout my teaching life, I've had the opportunity to learn from different kinds of methodologies, such as structuralism, behaviorism, communicative approach, and I've realized that all of them can be used in different moments of teaching. Thus, I focus on conversational aspects with activities involving drills, videos, songs, exercises, reading, that is, anything that can make the student learn. /
Durante mi carrera tuve la oportunidad de aprender diferentes metodologías y llegué a la conclusión de que todas se pueden utilizar en diferentes momentos de enseñanza, así que enfoco principalmente en los aspectos conversacionales con actividades de audio, de lectura, entre otros.My teaching material

I took my first class with Rafe, and it was amazing. We discussed my goals, and he gave me an idea of the topics I could learn with him.
I’ll schedule my next class, and I recommend him to anyone who needs a plan.
