What’s it like to have a lesson with me?
What Are My Lessons Like?
What curriculum do you follow?
I prepare the curriculum according to what the student wants and needs. Before you start taking my classes I like asking about what you like to do, and what your goals are, so I can incorporate that information to the personalized classes.
How do you plan lessons?
I follow the communicative approach, which means I focused on creating and/or improving communication skills. This does not exclude beginner level, on the contrary, grammar content is always given, but along with the task and the communication goal.
How do you measure progress?
During the first class the student answers an informal oral exam which allows me to know their level and place them under the MCER (el Marco Común Europeo de Referencia de las Lenguas), CEFR in English (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages). Besides that, I do not take exams, but I ask for homework to be done for every class -if the circumstances allow it-. This could be from listening to a podcast, completing a drill, writing a paragraph, or inventing a story. As the student understands how to structure and use the language, they are more able to communicate; thus, tasks become more difficult.
What materials/tools do you use?
I created my own materials and keep working on it according to what the student needs. Everything is provided digitally in a private share folder.
How can you help students with their long-term goals?
I respect their pace, and I keep myself open and creative to provide the necessary tools that go along with their reality and possibilities.
