IF YOU DON'T FIND AVAILABILITY, PLEASE, SEND ME A MESSAGE.
I live in Cancun and I love visiting the beach, watching movies and traveling! I love languages and get to know new cultures. Learning a language is an excellent way to empathize with its speakers. Teaching my mother tongue is one of my current passions. Plus, I have a bachelor degree in Sustainable Tourism and I'm currently doing a Master´s degree in Innovation and Learning Management.
¡Con gusto puedo ayudarte a lograr tu meta!Me as a Teacher
I have a certification as a Spanish teacher by El Instituto Cervantes. I have taught Spanish privately for three years and have extensive knowledge of grammar and spelling.
I love my language and I'm determined to help you to improve your Spanish in an interactive, interesting and fun way. I adapt the classes according to your needs. As I studied Sustainable Tourism, I'm very familiar with the most common and useful expressions for tourists and travelers, in addition, I speak intermediate English & Portuguese. Let the lesson begin!My lessons & teaching style
In my master's program I am designing learning tools and methods that subtly combine grammar teaching with oral practice of Spanish.
Say Goodbye to the books and grammar exercises that are common in traditional classes. In my years of experience teaching on educational platforms, I have realized that all my students are tired of learning only grammatical structures. For this reason, in my sessions, I give priority to oral practice through the simulation of real-life situations.

Darwin is a terrific teacher. I’ve had several on line Spanish teachers and and he is the best. He keeps the conversation flowing and comes back later to correct mistakes. He is prepared and professional. I recommend him highly.

Darvin is an excellent and creative teacher. He is very attentive, clear, and helpful. I learned so much in my first class and it flew by so fast. Nice to meet you, Darvin and I look forward to the next one!

¡Mi primera lección con Darvin era excelente! Me gusta que jugamos un juego en el que pude practicar la comprensión de lo que estaba diciendo. Era muy divertido y buena practica. También me gusta mucho que dice usaremos ejercicios de un libro como guía para las lecciónes en el futuro. ¡Estoy emocionada para continuar a aprender y practicar el español!

Dar is the most excellent teacher to prepare you for the DELE. The classes were a simulation of the speaking part of the DELE exam, in which I would present a discourse, followed by Dar's questions, then a negotiation about a prescribed topic - exactly as in the real exam. After this, Dar would correct every error I made, which was essential and crucial for me. I really appreciated this specific feedback. Dar knows the DELE inside and out; exactly what is required, how to approach it, examiners' look-fors and what would cost marks. The resources he has are limitless and directly useful. In addition, Dar is very friendly, welcoming and positive, and really puts you at ease. I advise anyone who is serious about passing the DELE to take classes with him.
