About Me
italki teacher since Feb 28, 2019InterestsMusicReadingWriting
My name is Nathalie and I have a huge passion for languages and different cultures. I'm originally from Norway, but I´m currently living in Mexico. I've also lived in France for more than two years. I love to travel and get to know new places and cultures, and this is something that I really like to talk about in my lessons. In addition to this, I'm interested in topics such as languages, literature and art, and I'm more than happy to discuss this with my students.Me as a Teacher
In addition to Norwegian, my mother tongue, I speak English, Spanish and French fluently. I have a Master’s degree in Spanish and Latin American studies from the the University of Bergen in Norway, and I’ve also studied French at the same institution.
I love to travel, and I´ve had the opportunity to study and work in different countries, like France, where I worked as an English and Spanish teacher for adults , and as I mentioned, in Mexico, where I still live. I have several years of experience in teaching languages, both classroom and online teaching.My lessons & teaching style
I think one of the main keys is to find something that motivates the student to learn. This is why I always try to include various topics in my lessons, like cultural topics, or whatever the student finds interesting. However, it’s also important to learn the grammar and the vocabulary, because we need to know the structures of a language in order to be able to speak it, right? In other words, in my lessons you can expect a combination of learning the structures of the language and conversation practice. Of course, this also depends on each student’s level, needs and goals. I use different kinds of activities to help the student improve in both writing, speaking, reading and listening.My teaching material

Nathalie is such an amazing teacher. She always make sure to send an article upfront. This helps me to prepare on beforehand and ask more guidance or support during the call. She clarifies words and writes all the unknown words immediately in a Google document for me to learn, rehearse afterwards. This way I can fully participate and be present during the lesson itself. She is patient, kind and a loving personality on top of being professional and experienced.

Det var hyggelig å snakke med Nathalie igjen! :) Hun husket hva jeg trengte å jobbe med for å forbedre meg til norskprøven neste uke. Hun hjalp meg med grammatikken min og vi jobbet litt med verb nummer to regel og hvordan å bøye adjektiver i bestemt form. Hun skriv i en Google Doc så jeg har alle tilbakemeldinger fra forskjellige leksjoner i et plass - så nyttig! :) Jeg følge meg litt bedre om norskprøven nå ^_^

Nathalie is a teacher who is 100% there for you and ensures that you learn exactly what you find important.
All lessons are carefully prepared and during the lesson a list is being made on the spot of what you have learned. This way it's easy to practice all the new words and sayings you learned that day. Love this!
Nathalie is a great teacher and easy to communicate with.

Hyggelig å snakke med Nathalie som alltid :)
Vi snakket om norsk kultur og hvordan det kan sammenlignes med britisk og mexicansk kultur. Hun hjalp meg med plassering av adverb og verb når det er en leddsetning. Selv om det var tidlig for henne, begynte vi ti minutter før timen, så jeg kunne rekke språkkafeen etterpå. Tusen takk Nathalie! ^_^

Hyggelig å snakke med Nathalie ^_^
Vi snakket om innvandring i Norge og Mexico og jeg fortalte om livet på Svalbard. Jeg vil ta norskprøven så hun ga meg noen tipps for å forbedre norsken min. Jeg håper at vi sees igjen og kan jobbe litt med kaotiske grammatikken min :p
