Hello! My name is Thea, and I'm a native Romanian, Catalan and Spanish speaker. I'm also fluent in English, Italian, Portuguese and French (we can mix them up if you're learning more than one of them, let me know if you want that!).
I'm an English studies and translation student, and I have a medical background as well.
I have more than 17+ years of experience as a language learner and 9+ years as a teacher, and I can use that expertise to help you reach your goals in your target language!

Me as a Teacher
I'm pretty easy-going, and an eternal learner! I would love to discuss any hobbies you may have, especially if they are related to language-learning, music, reading, and so on. Let me know if you have a very specific topic you want to talk about as well!
My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style is focused on prioritizing your learning style and rhythm.
I will adapt to your goals. If you want to take an exam soon, we'll be using examples from past exams and practice the different parts of the exam. If you want to focus on conversational fluency we can have conversations in your target language!
Keep in mind: you are paying me! Make as many mistakes as you need to, get your money's worth! Learning from your mistakes is the best way to learn c:

If you are interested in languages, Thea is a fantastic teacher/tutor/coach. Currently I'm focused on French but I'm also still improving in Spanish and I'm beginning vocabulary and grammar in Italian. Thea is able to compare and contrast various latin based languages with me. I find I can better remember grammar and vocabulary when I find similarities between French and Spanish or French and Italian. Furthermore because she is a passionate language learner herself, she always shares new resources and suggestions. My experience has always been great each and every week.
Merci beaucoup, muchas gracias, grazie mille Thea!!!

Each class with Thea is a fun, interactive learning experience. She customises the lessons so they fit my way of learning and exploring the Spanish language. The variety of topics approached during the learning sessions is a great way to extend the vocabulary and to gain confidence in building more complex sentences. I highly recommend Thea as a tutor.

Thea is a most wonderful teacher! She takes the time to get to know you and tailors the curriculum based on your needs and how you learn best. She is very flexible and patient, making learning a lot less stressful. I've been a student for a few months and I can definitively say that I've learned more in my time with her than I could have on my own. She has wealth of knowledge not just with language and teaching techniques, but relevant experience with several different cultures. I would highly recommend her as an instructor ^_^

This was my very first lesson with Thea and I had a great time with her. She is funny, very knowledgeable and full of resources. I'm looking forward to many more lessons with her.

Thea was engaging and interactive, making learning my lesson enjoyable. I was nervous and I appreciated her patience and kindness. She provided clear explanations, which helped me understand points better. She tailors to you and your needs and provided some really great tools I’d never heard of and will help support my language journey.

Amazing first lesson! I am very happy to be working with Thea. She has given me some great resources and ideas to work on Spanish outside of class. I am looking forward to our next lesson.
