Languages: Spanish, English, French
I am a Native Spanish tutor from Venezuela who has had the opportunity to work for 12 years now with kids, teenagers, and adults from different countries around the world. I have also worked as an online tutor for more than 6 years now. This teaching experience combined with my enthusiasm, professionalism, commitment and a COMMUNICATIVE/ ACTION-ORIENTED APPROACH will assure a successful environment. My lessons are prepared and focused on my student's interests and needs in order to help them to improve their weak points in the language and to achieve their goals. I am proficient in classroom management, as well as use of modern teaching techniques. I have in-depth knowledge of creating an interactive atmosphere for students in order to expedite learning. Spanish subjects I can teach: a) Conversational Spanish b) General Spanish c) Preparation for exams: DELE, AP Spanish, IB d) Spanish for business and for professionals e) Spanish as a subject (for Middle, High School and College students)

Interests: I love to read, dance, do yoga, listen to music and discover places, people and traditions by travelling. That's why I love my job as a tutor because I feel I can travel all around the world through my students and learn from them. I am an open-minded person who is always interested in learning and not just in teaching.

What Are My Lessons Like?

What curriculum do you follow?

Communicative/ action-oriented approach.

How do you plan lessons?

I follow the approach mentioned above and I combine the 5 communicative skills (listening comprehension, reading comprehension, speaking, speaking interaction, writing) + grammar, vocabulary, phonetics, and topics related to Hispanic culture (Spain and Latin America). They are not all included in every lesson plan. It depends on the student’s needs, interests, level, and progress.

How do you measure progress?

Generally, students can see the progress by themselves but I frequently tell my students the progress they are making in each communicative skill we work on. When I consider the student has reached one MCER level (A1, A2, B1, B2), I propose to take a sample DELE exam so in that way the student can test his/her knowledge and realize how much they have progressed and what are the weak points to improve.

What materials/tools do you use?

Authentic material, images, pictures, videos, podcasts, book recordings, texts from books or websites, website activities/exercises, games and online interactive activities.

How can you help students with their long-term goals?

By using a variety of activities, working on student’s needs and interests, having good lesson plans, and being a friendly and committed tutor, students can be happy and satisfied.

  • Book a FREE 20-minute Discovery Call (Chat about your goals & meet your tutor before booking!).
  • Book a 30-minute class – price varies per tutor.
  • Book a paid 1-hour class – price varies per tutor.

Our lessons are 30 or 60 minutes, but you can book for a longer time if you desire. Or book lessons in bulk for a discounted price once you find a tutor you’re comfortable with. The discounts are on each tutor’s page.

What are you going to learn in each lesson?

The lesson plan is designed according to your needs. Do you need to learn more past or future tense? Help with your pronunciation? Are you looking to become more fluent and confident in your words? All is possible with our tutors, some of whom have been teaching Spanish for over 20 years.
