About me - English
I was born in Argentina, a native Spanish speaker who is also a Spanish teacher now. I am bilingual (English-Spanish). I have been traveling for more than 4 years and now I have lived in China for more than 1 year.
Qualifications & Experience
I received the ELE certification as a Spanish teacher for foreign people “Spanish teacher training – Spanish as a foreign language: levels A1 – B1”, Tía Tula, Centro Acreditado por el Instituto Cervantes.
I also have a TEFL (teaching English as a foreign language).
I have been working online as a Spanish teacher for more than 2 years, and sometimes I teach kids English. I had a really good time when I taught in a kindergarten in Hanoi in Vietnam.
Teaching Approach
I create fun and dynamic lessons. By applying kaizen into teaching Spanish, students feel very comfortable with using the new language. The Kaizen says that everything starts with baby steps in order to avoid the feeling of frustration. At the beginning, Japan employers used it for managing their companies, but it can also be applied into many other aspects of daily life, including learning a new language. This method applies to every student, new students, those who want to pass an exam and it also applies to the people who want to learn a new language but don´t have too much time. Every student is surprised at how fast they make progress.
All the classes are tailored to meet individual needs, which means that we take into consideration of students’ interests, levels and objectives while preparing each lesson. The study program is based on the daily life such as to talk about daily routines, to describe places and people, to simulate real life conversations. The advanced students enjoy studying with a native speaker because by doing so they can get used to the normal speed, accent, they learn new vocabulary and receive correction about their grammar and pronunciation.

Teaching Approach
Creo lecciones divertidas e interesantes. Al usar el Kaizen como parte de la metodología los estudiantes se sienten cómodos usando su nuevo idioma El Kaizen dice que todo empieza con pasos muy pequeños para evitar el sentimiento de frustración. Esto se empezó aplicando a empresas, pero ahora se usa para la vida diaria, o sea que también se utiliza para aprender un nuevo idioma. Esté método se aplica para todo tipo de estudiantes, los estudiantes nuevos, aquellos que quieren pasar un examen, también se aplica a los que quieren aprender un idioma nuevo y no tienen tiempo. Todos ellos están sorprendidos de lo rápido que aprenden.
Todas las clases están preparadas dependiendo los gustos, intereses y objetivos de cada estudiante. El plan de estudio está basado en situaciones de la vida cotidiana, por ejemplo actividades diarias, describir lugares, personas, diálogos diarios, etc. Para los estudiantes avanzados lo bueno de aprender español con un nativos es que se acostumbran al acento, velocidad del idioma y aparte se benefician con vocabulario y recibiendo correcciones en la gramática y pronunciación.
