I’m an English, Spanish and Catalan teacher. I have experience teaching these three languages to students from around the world and I really enjoy it.
I'm also the author of the book: "La clave para aprender idiomas". If you want to know more about my methodology you could read the book.
Me as a Teacher
I get involved in the learning process of each student because I really enjoy following their progress. For me teaching is a hugely rewarding job and I love it.
I studied a master's degree about English and Spanish education and I learned a lot about how to learn a new language.
My lessons & teaching style
In my lessons we will focus on different things depend on the level of each student, and we are going to use challenges to focus in each thing.
Each week I will put you a challenge that you will need to complete before the next lesson (it could be about anything: listening, reading, grammar, writing, vocabulary…). And I’m going to adapt these challenges to each student, in order to make it enjoyable for everyone.

Joan is an awesome teacher! If you want to improve speaking in Spanish and at the same time learn important lessons on grammar, his classes are perfect for it. He is very supportive and he adapts to the needs of his students quickly. In our classes, we have the first half of it talking about anything under the sun, followed by exercises he has prepared beforehand. It balances both structured and rather spontaneous learning to help you improve your Spanish skills. I definitely recommend learning with Joan!

Joan Gad quite structured lessons but also gives you a chance to speak, write and practice what you know, it’s not a lecture. Joan is an encouraging teacher, has a plan ready for the next lesson and provides good resources and ideas for studying. He is also open to suggestions and therefore personalizes his lesson plans. He is really friendly and creates a relaxed environment, I will definitely do more lessons with him!

Joan was very prepared with interesting and useful materials for us to use. I was very nervous about starting up my language learning, but the environment was very comfortable and casual, which really helps with the learning process.

Class with Joan is always enjoyable. He is very good at speaking at an easy-to-follow pace, sometimes faster, other times slower. The time spent together goes by quickly.

Class with Joan was very worthwhile . Not only did I learn more Catalan, but also more about the various topics we covered, in this case, topics related to different sports. I enjoyed our class a lot.
