Soy Agustina, profesora asentada en Buenos Aires (por ahora). Empecé a enseñar español mientras vivía en Berlín, lo que me llevó a estudiar y vivir en Tilburg, Glasgow y Barcelona. Disfruto del intercambio entre lenguas y territorios. Conecto bien con los estudiantes que disfrutan del juego de aprender: leer un cuento difícil, escribir algo propio, tener una conversación profunda aunque no tengan todas las herramientas para hacerlo perfecto.
Soy Licenciada en Ciencias de la Educación (UBA) especializada en Psicolingüística con una Maestría en Literatura (Erasmus Mundus). Me entusiasma la búsqueda creativa de las mejores estrategias para lograr avances con cada estudiante.Me as a Teacher
Creo firmemente en que todas las personas pueden aprender.
Trabajo como profesora de español para extranjeros hace más de 7 años. Trabajé en Babbel, Lingoda y Busuu. Antes de eso fui como profesora de primaria, educadora de adultos y formadora de docentes.
Con los años aprendí que cada estudiante necesita algo distinto. Eso me mantiene alerta y curiosa en cada clase.
Me gusta especialmente el momento en que alguien se anima a decir algo difícil en español, aunque no le salga perfecto. Desde ahí trabajamos. Corrijo con cuidado, propongo materiales a medida y busco el ritmo que le funciona a cada persona. My lessons & teaching style
Algunas convicciones que fui construyendo con los años:
- El aprendizaje viene de la conexión entre personas y las ganas de comunicarse; eso solo sucede cuando el estudiante se siente cómodo para practicar.
- Los errores son parte del proceso, no obstáculos. Me interesa más lo que el estudiante quiere decir que lo que puede decir perfectamente.
- El español real — el que se habla, el que se escribe, el que aparece en la literatura y en los podcasts — es el mejor material de trabajo. Por eso uso textos literarios, artículos, videos y escritura creativa.
- Cada clase tiene su propio ritmo. Algunas son más estructuradas, otras más libres. Depende del estudiante y del momento.My teaching material

Master's - Masters Children's Literature, Media & Culture
2010 - 2016
Bachelor’s - Ciencias de la EducaciónIt is a very long study that covers different disciplines to think about the educational process: psychology, history, sociology, politics and didactics.
2008 - 2010
Bachelor’s - Profesora de Nivel PrimarioThis was a three years study to get certified to teach at Elementary Schools, but this is not actually a "Licenciatura" because in Argentine this course can only be taken at the "Institutos de Formación Docente" and not at Universities.
Work Experience
2010 - 2015
Profesora de Nivel PrimarioI've beeen teaching Maths, Language, Sciences and History at all levels in Elementary Schools, from 1st Grade to 7th Grade.
2014 - 2018
Alfabetizadora de Jóvenes y AdultosI've worked as an Adult Educator, teaching teenagers and adults how to read and write and helping them to get the Elementary School certificate and get on track to continue studying.
2017 - 2018
Capacitadora DocenteI've worked as a teachers trainer on the years 2017 and 2018, helping other teachers to improve their Language lessons.
2019 - 2019
Spanish TeacherI've been working as an Online Spanish Teacher for the last 6 months.
I really like Lingoda's approach, but I really miss being to think my own materials according to the each student's needs. Also, many of my students at Lingoda ask for me to be their personal coach, but that is not possible though that platform.

I was impressed with Agustina’s professionalism and she was clearly very experienced as a teacher. Her English is excellent and she could clearly explain the rules of Spanish as they came up. I only wanted a conversation lesson so there deliberately wasn’t a structure but she identified recurring mistakes and explained some really good language points for me, without interrupting the flow but at natural breaks in the conversation. I will definitely be booking my lessons with her

Agustina is an incredible tutor. It is amazing how much you learn in one class with Agustina! She creates the perfect atmosphere for you to speak Spanish and you end up speaking much more than you realised you could. She is very prepared so lessons are very strucuted but also a lot of fun. Without doubt, I would recommend Agustina to anyone learning Spanish.

Agustina is the best!!! I have been talking with her for six years now and if that doesn't speak volumes, I don't know what does. Not only is she a great teacher, she has become a great friend. She is easy to talk to, provides great materials for learning & reading, can talk on any topic and doesn't make you feel stupid when you say dumb things in Spanish :) Gracias Agustina - beso!

Agustina is a phenomenal instructor who gives encourages you to push yourself in your expression and maintains space for you to correct yourself. She provides ample feedback tends to bounce ideas off of your thoughts. Additionally, she regularly checks in to see what's working for you in the class and if there's anything you'd like to focus on. I 100% recommend her!
