Information about Desiree

I`m a native Spanish and Catalan teacher from Barcelona and I`m 32 years old. I moved to Leeds in 2013 but now I`m living in Darrington (Pontefract) and I love Yorkshire.
I`m an experienced teacher with large academic qualification. My first degree was Humanities in the University Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona, but I also studied Literary Theory and Comparative Literature (Literary Studies) in the University of Barcelona.
After finishing Humanities I decided to become teacher and I obtained the Certificate in Pedagogical Aptitude to teach in Secondary Schools. After moving to the UK in 2013, I obtained the Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).
Currently, I have got specific education updated in Spanish teaching after many studies, workshops and the Master`s degree in Spanish teaching as a foreign language, which I finished in 2015.
I`m organised, responsible, reliable, honest and as committed to my learners as my work.

Availability: One weekday and weekends fortnightly.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: I started my teaching experience as private tutor in 2002, and since 2011 I have been teaching Spanish and Catalan as foreign languages to young and adult students, either beginners or advanced.
After coming to the UK, I was volunteering from April to July of 2014 in the secondary school in Dewsbury here I started as Spanish Learning Mentor and Spanish teacher. After a year in a secondary school in Rotherham, currently I am a very happy and settled teacher of Spanish in Barnsley.
As in my previous experience in Spain I always focus on the language needs of the student.
My effort for starting teaching is to assess with the learner the acquired knowledge and skills, as it leads me adapt and select contents and materials.
I always want to improve the skills, which enable the student to control the learning process independently, think about it and be aware of the achievements.
