¡Hola! Mi nombre es Mariela, soy de Cochabamba una ciudad bonita de Bolivia. Tengo un nivel B2 en inglés y estoy aprendiendo alemán. Me gusta mucho aprender cosas nuevas. Uno de mis pasatiempos favoritos es dibujar, y cuando puedo me gusta viajar y conocer nuevos lugares. Hello! My name is Mariela. I am from Cochabamba, a beautiful city in Bolivia. I have a B2 level in English, and I am learning German. I like learning new things. One of my favorite hobbies is drawing, and when it is possible, I travel and see new places. Enseño español desde el año 2020, pero mi gusto por la enseñanza la descubrí hace mucho tiempo atrás. En el año 2014 empecé enseñando Computación en escuelas con pocos recursos de mi país, posteriormente hice trabajos voluntarios enseñando a leer y escribir a niños que vivIan en zonas aisladas, quienes no tuvieron la oportunidad de ingresar a la escuela. Después de realizar este tipo de trabajos, decidí hacer un curso TESOL, dónde aprendí distintos métodos de enseñanza de idiomas. Me gusta adaptarme a las necesidades y a los intereses del estudiante. Es por eso que la clase de prueba es muy importante, pues ahí podré analizar tu nivel de español y elaboraré material específico de acuerdo a tus necesidades. Mis clases son en español, pero no tengo problema en hacer explicaciones en inglés. Si quieres aprender y mejorar tu español, no dudes en escribirme. ¡Nos vemos!

I've been studying with Mariela for over a month now. I am very happy with how our lessons are proceeding and she has contributed greatly to my confidence in the language. We've had some really interesting conversations! I've learned a lot about Bolivia and I've had the opportunity to talk about my life in Northern Canada. When I study with Mariela, it is for two hours. I think this has been helpful for me. Our two hour lessons give me enough time to learn and practice with her guidance.
