About me - English
Hi! I’m a Psychologist, specialized in education and training, with 3 years experience at online teaching and 24 years teaching languages.
At the moment I live in Madrid, a city that I love. I do love teaching too, and the level and speed my students get learning languages are the guarantee that I do it quite well!
Besides my passion for teaching, I also enjoy drawing and painting, children, music, healthy life, making friends, photography, open air, and cooking food from all around the World.
Qualifications & Experience
Psychology, Teaching Methodology, Life & Corporate Coaching
4 years of experience in online teaching and 24 years teaching English and Spanish, Study and Social Skills, Arts & Crafts, and general school support lessons, to children and adults.
Teaching Approach
Taking advantage of all the possibilities Skype has to offer (audio, video, file sending, voice recorder, etc.) and those of the internet (email, navigator, etc.) I use a very effective methodology for language teaching.
You will learn from practice, becoming proficient in all four areas of use of the language: reading, listening, writing and speaking, and seeking support when necessary in the learning of useful grammar structures. That way, you will get a strongly consolidated learning of the language, and lots of fun too!
And if you simply want to improve fluency, lots of real conversation practice is what you need.
To begin, we shall determine your learning goals (travelling, studying, working; in two months, in a year…) and then, a placement test. Afterwards, a weekly working plan adapted to your time table and your needs. I also offer 30min lessons for busy people who want to learn fast! (with an error report provided at the end of the lesson).
If you have any further questions, we may arrange a first tryout lesson for free!
¡Hola! Soy psicóloga, especialista en educación y formación, con 4 años de experiencia en enseñanza online, y 24 años de experiencia en clases particulares.
Actualmente vivo en Madrid, una ciudad que me encanta. También me encanta enseñar, y el nivel y la rapidez con que mis alumnos aprenden ¡acreditan que lo hago bastante bien!
Aparte de mi pasión por enseñar, también me gusta dibujar y pintar, los niños, la música, la vida sana, hacer amigos, la fotografía, salir al aire libre y cocinar comida de todas partes del mundo.
Qualifications & Experience
Psicología, Metodología de la enseñanza, Life & Corporate Coaching
24 años impartiendo clases a niños y adultos de inglés, español, apoyo escolar, habilidades sociales, técnicas de estudio, artes plásticas y manualidades. 4 años en enseñanza online.
Teaching Approach
Aprovechando todos los recursos que ofrece Skype (video, audio, envío de archivos, grabadora, etc.) y los de internet (email, navegador, etc.) utilizo un enfoque metodológico muy eficaz para la enseñanza de idiomas.
Aprenderás desde la práctica, manejando las 4 áreas de dominio de un idioma: leer, entender, escribir y hablar, apoyándote cuando sea necesario en la enseñanza de estructuras gramaticales. Así obtendrás un aprendizaje serio y consolidado, y al mismo tiempo ¡te divertirás! Y si lo que necesitas es simplemente mejorar tu fluidez verbal, mucha práctica de conversación real y un informe de correcciones al final.
Para comenzar, determinaremos tus objetivos de aprendizaje (viajar, estudiar, trabajar; en dos meses, en un año…) y realizarás un test de nivel. Después, un plan de trabajo semanal adaptado a tu disponibilidad de horario, y a tus necesidades. Actualmente ofrezco también clases de conversación de 30min.
Si tienes cualquier otra duda, podemos concertar una primera lección de prueba sin coste.
