Over mij
italki leerkracht sinds 1 Oct 2021
InterestsReizenGamingMuziek
I'm an Animation graduate and translator who loves film 🎥🎵
My passion is to discover the world through words and images. I *love* dogs and cats, music, and anything that has to do with good stories! Maybe that is why I love languages so much?
Ik als leerkracht
I am patient, flexible, and creative. I love to teach through conversation and sentence patterns. I'm always open to suggestions, and I'm constantly motivated by students who ask lots of questions! I always try to understand what my students are trying to say before correcting them- sometimes you just need a nudge in the right direction to understand things by yourself :)
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I mostly teach through conversation, though I usually give grammar pointers when I think it's the right moment to study the topic. I usually ask students what they think they need to study, and we start by discussing that. If I notice there's another (more basic) skill or information that they're missing, and that is keeping them from improving, I'll address that topic too.
I adjust to whatever the student needs, as I believe that being aware of the different learning styles is key to achieve goals most efficiently.
Please feel free to ask any questions you may have about Spanish! Every question is worth asking ;)
Had a fantastic lesson. Mariana is so great at giving examples and making complicated ideas make sense. I have such a better grasp now on por and para and when to use estaba or estuvo. Excited for our next lesson.

Mariana is friendly and enthusiastic about improving a student’s fluency. She is excellent at keeping a conversation flowing when a student is stuck or trying to move on to another subject. She will type out key phrases that a student has trouble with and she gives out a lot of great recommendations to improve. I highly recommend Mariana for first-time or returning italki users because I felt comfortable asking her to repeat herself and asking her lots of questions. I am looking forward to my next lesson with her.

I was incredibly nervous about speaking Spanish in my first lesson, and Mariana made it super easy! She is so friendly and fun, and really took the time to make sure I understood all of the concepts we went over. I'm excited about my assignments, and already can't wait for our next class! :)

Mucho gusto ! Mariana. 私のスペイン語は入門レベルなので0からのスタートです。日本語で優しく、忍耐強く教えてくれるので、私のような日本人の学習者でも、安心してネイティブからレッスンを受けられます。これからマリアナさんとスペイン語を勉強していこうと思います。

Mariana knows all the details and rules when it comes to learning Spanish, and makes it fun and easy to understand! I'm excited every time we finish a lesson because it all makes a little more sense 😂

Mariana was so kind, patient and encouraging! I felt that I learned a lot just from my first lesson. I'm definitely looking forward to future lessons with her! Thank you!
