Hi there! My name is Jokin and I'm from Spain, Bilbao specifically. I am 21 years old and I'm currently studying to get a bachelor's degree in Business Administration and Management and Industrial Engineering. I realized I could help others learning spanish when I was studying at the US; I spent hours after class helping other classmates with their spanish skills so I improved as a teacher. Hola! Mi nombre es Jokin y soy de España, Bilbao específicamente. Tengo 21 años y estudio para obtener un doble grado en ADE + ITI. Descubrí que podía ayudar a otros a aprender español mientras estudiaba en EU. Pasé horas ayudando a mis compañeros con su nivel de español, así que mejoré como profesor.

Me as a Teacher

I am pacient and practical; I know how hard it is to learn a foreign language so don't be afraid to make mistakes, we all do. I am talkative and I'm always encouraging students to lose their fear to talk in spanish outloud, because that's what's all about. If you are not afraid more power to you! I asure we can have a nice conversation or go over some difficulties. Soy paciente y práctico. Sé lo duro que es aprender una lengua extranjera así que no tengas miedo a cometer errores, todos lo hacemos, porque de eso trata. Si no tienes miedo mucho mejor para ti! Te aseguro que podemos tener una buena conversación o revisar algunas dificultades.

My lessons & teaching style

I try to make intereactive lessons, I always find interesting topics, so the student is as interested as possible, that way if he (or she) liked the topic we worked on, he'll be more likely to remember what he learned. I make questions and games and I adjust the lessons to the level of the student so he doesn't find it neither too easy nor too difficult. Intento que mis lecciones sean interactivas, siempre encuentro temas interesantes, para que el estudiante esté interesado. De ese modo, si a el (o ella) le ha gustado el tema, recordará más fácilmente lo aprendido. Hago preguntas, juegos y ajusto las lecciones al nivel del estudiante para que no las encuentre muy fáciles ni muy difíciles.

Great first Basque lesson with Jokin!! Looking forward to the next one. He's super knowledgeable on the history of the language, which I really appreciated. The resources he has are great! Just greatness all around. Definitely recommend him.
