About Me

italki teacher since Feb 23, 2018

Hi to everyone! I am a Certified Teacher and Educational Psychologist from University in Spain. I specialized in teaching Spanish and English as a foreign language and worked in other countries as China and England. My main goal is to discover and promote the students´ potential by using different approaches, adapted to everyone´s needs. I have more than 6 years teaching experience face to face and online, I LOVE MY JOB and that is why I am always available for my students and create tailored materials for them. You can check my students testimonials and see!

Me as a Teacher

I consider myself a creative, committed, fun and well organized teacher, to take the best out of you! I have been working with children, teenagers and adults. I am also qualified to prepare you for official exams: PET, KET, FCE, CAE and DELE. Me considero una maestra creativa, involucrada con mis estudiantes, divertida y organizada ¡para sacar lo mejor de tí! He trabajado durante más de 6 años con niños, adolescentes y adultos. También preparo los exámenes oficiales PET, KET, FCE, CAE y DELE.

My lessons & teaching style

My method follows 3 statements: 1) Language is used for communication, so every lesson is focused on communicative and conversational practice, although graded in difficulty and Official Curriculum for grammar and vocabulary. 2) Students learn faster and better with high motivation. I cannot do much about inner motivation, but what I do is design tailored materials with topics you are interested in ( No more useless textbooks! For example... If you love golf, we will work present using a description of a golf picture) , work on daily situations, expressions and idioms, feedback, being friendly, helpful and creative 3) Language is the way a culture expresses: what if I show you what do we do?

Yolanda is a great teacher! She makes the lessons fun but challenging. I've learned so much already; my Spanish has improved more in 5 weeks than the previous 5 months.
