Informazioni su di me
Insegnante di italki dal 25 May 2016Argomento di interesseFilmAnimaliViaggiSaluteStoria
I’m a Certified ELE teacher, Master's Degree from University of Granada(Spain)with over 17 years of experience, a DELE Examiner by the Cervantes Institute. Currently I teach online & at a university in Colombia. Spanish from Latin America & Spain. All levels. Lawyers, Medical Professionals, DELE, Business, SIELE, Pronunciation, LISTENING, conversation, CULTURE.
I was born in Colombia but I have lived many years in Europe, United States and South America. I’m also a citizen of Spain. My best experiences abroad involved meeting great people, finding interesting places and seeing the cultural mix in the world. My profession encompasses my favorite things: I’m a journalist and a Spanish teacher.Che tipo di insegnante sono
My philosophy is: “Let’s go to work (together) side by side to achieve your language goals and reach fluency”. Let me give you support, accompaniment and motivation to walk this road.
My students say that I’m very patient, organized, encouraging, funny and easy to talk to. I always try to focus on my students' language weaknesses, needs and preferences.
The atmosphere in my lessons is relaxed and professional. You’ll gain confidence from our lessons, which will allow you to communicate.
I have accumulated over 10,000 hours teaching Spanish (ELE) in many environments. I have worked one-on-one in private lessons, with groups at a university and online with various language-learning platforms. Le mie lezioni e il mio metodo di insegnamento
My lessons involve the crucial areas of language learning: speaking, listening, writing, reading, and modern and useful vocabulary. I like to share insights on cultures of different parts of the Spanish-speaking world, in reference to Latin America and Spain.
I offer Spanish from Latin America and Spain in structured grammar lessons using professional and interesting materials. Conversational practices build confidence and fluency. Spanish for medical personnel, lawyers and business people is highlighted.
Conversation-based lessons start using a topic, an article, or a video to respond to. We can include related grammar, vocabulary and specific language skills.

La scelta dell'insegnante
A very productive DELE prep class. We went over a section of the exam as well as tips for success on the exam day (this Saturday). Elena has been so motivating and helpful. I highly highly recommend her. <3

I asked Elen to help me with medical vocabulary and she came prepared with interesting and varied materials to help me. This was exactly what I was looking for and even from the first lesson I have already learned useful vocab. Thank you!
