About Me

¡Qué es la que hay mi corillo! I’m Emilio, a TEFL-certified English tutor from New York who loves conversational English and slang. My mixed roots (Puerto Rican, Italian, German, Hungarian) fuel my passion for languages—I speak Spanish and am learning Portuguese. I’ve taught students from Haiti to Japan using music, movies, and pop culture to make learning fun. Whether you’re mastering small talk or decoding slang like "no cap," let’s make learning YOUR language journey. ¡Vamos!Me as a Teacher
I am a certified online TEFL teacher, and I’m excited to teach English as a professional tutor on this platform. I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Science, Technology, and Society, with double minors in Latin American Studies and Sociology.
I worked on a project with students in Chile, and I also volunteered twice a week for 3 months to tutor English to non-native speakers from different cultural backgrounds. I have experience as a substitute tutor as well.
I’ve had the opportunity to meet and work with students from countries such as Haiti, Peru, the Dominican Republic, Colombia, Ukraine, Turkey, China, and Japan.My lessons & teaching style
In addition to being self-taught in foreign languages like Spanish and Portuguese, I’ve also used iTalki myself as a learner. My teaching style is flexible and works well with many different types of students. While I use structured methods from my TEFL training, I always adapt my lessons to fit each student’s personal goals.
I focus on helping students use English in real-life conversations and everyday situations. My lessons often include activities using PDFs and videos to teach grammar, pronunciation, sentence structure, and vocabulary. I also think it's important to teach informal or "slang" English, using tools like websites, music, TV shows, movies, and more.My teaching material

Very nice talk with Emilio, he is really a great and warm teacher. Emilio is a very well-educated young man. You can talk to him about many different topics. He has a very clear and pleasant voice. He wants to give his best so that you get a good benefit from the lesson. I really enjoy the lessons with Emilio!
