¡Hola!
I'm Isabel and I come from Oaxaca, Mexico. I love analog photography and visual arts.
I finished my master's degree in TESOL (teaching English to speakers of other languages) and I'm currently working on my thesis. Being a second language learner myself, I understand the challenges but also the remarkable feelings that come with noticing your own progress.

Я как преподаватель
I've taught both Spanish and English in Mexico (mostly to teenagers/young adults), always trying make my students feel comfortable so that they speak from day one. Creating an engaging lesson based on real material is key too, I believe this helps with motivation for learning, enjoyment of the class and retention.
Мои уроки и стиль преподавания
Let's talk about your purposes, expectations, and needs beforehand and communicate throughout the process. I love the idea of an amusing learning experience, including lots of interesting material, activities, and why not, games, and a good laugh from time to time!
My teaching style is based on:
✔ The Immersion style: there will be exposure to Spanish (as much as possible) according to your level, using slow, clear and comprehensible language; gesticulation and visual aids are also included.
✔ Whole language approach: designed to help you learn in a natural way with authentic situations and materials. You'll construct your knowledge by doing (rather than receiving it).
I have been taking classes once a week for the past 8-9 months with Isabel and have been seriously learning Spanish for almost a year now. When I say she is the best I truly mean it. She is always prepared, punctual, patient, resourceful, organized, and is the essence of what a tutor should strive to be. Since I started classes with her my Spanish has improved significantly and quicker than I anticipated. She always corrects me or suggests more natural ways of phrases/sentences/expressions for me and let’s me finish my thoughts/sentences before correcting me which I appreciate. She always gives me opportunities to speak. Our classes are informative, interesting, and most importantly fun. If I have a question or need help understanding a concept (grammar, vocabulary, conjugations) she provides me with clarity. I will continue to book with her and hope to reach an advanced level with her.

Classes with Isabel are always interactive and well-organised. She always offers a range of interesting materials before every lesson. I would definitely recommend choosing her as a tutor, especially for those who need to develop their speaking and listening skills.

Isabel is helping me so much! I work in a very technical field (medicine) and she is coming up with some amazing creative ways for me to learn! I feel like my understanding of medical Spanish is stronger than it ever has been. I’m having so much fun learning! Highly recommend

This is my first lesson with Isabel, she has a very encouraging energy about her and has a pedagogical teaching style. I fully recommend her, I felt comfortable while making mistakes, it is only natural. Will give a more in depth review once I have more lessons under my belt with her.

Isabel always prepares a good lesson plan. She listens well and allows the flow of the class to change depending on the student's inputs. The best!
