Dina

I am a native speaker offering lessons to people who need help with their vocabulary, conversation, business, holidays and student homework / exams. I am Argentinean, which means that I speak slower and clearer, however the language and grammar taught is the same.

I am a friendly and approachable person who will try to make your lessons as enjoyable as possible. I will try to make you speak the language as much as possible, according to your needs and level. I will expect you to talk a bit more each lesson as you make progress. All my lessons are focused and based on the student, making them 100% personalised.

I offer lessons either face to face or on-line.
I am willing to travel to my students without any extra charge if they are within my area - but charge a very reasonable amount for those further afield.

Availability: Weekdays mornings / afternoons / evenings

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: I have had one-to-one lessons with English speakers, both children and adults. I`ve been teaching Spanish for 7 years in the UK and have completed training with the Unamuno Center, which belongs to the University of Salamanca, for ELE (teaching Spanish as a foreign language).
I`m currently doing a Grammar Course for ELE tutors in Unamuno Center- University of Salamanca .
I`ve been teaching an adult group of 12-14 people at U3A in Amersham since January 2015.
I teach using a wide variety of resources covering all the levels, using different text books according to the student`s needs.

Report: I have been having Spanish sessions with Dina now for a year, and not only has my Spanish come on in leaps and bounds, but we have become fast friends. I cannot recommend her highly enough, not only for her tuition which is excellent, but also for her cheerful and friendly disposition.

Report: Dina, has been a fantastic tutor. She managed to build up my confidence when I needed to catch up with so much before a very important exam. Her lessons are really well planned and the exercises she choose are always exactly what I need. She was very supportive and patient. I am still using Dina`s services because I truly enjoy the sessions.

Report: I am delighted with Dina, she is friendly, encouraging and challenging. She instinctively knows what I can cope with and how to stretch me. She has an assortment of materials, apps and iPad downloads so we can mix up the lessons. No hesitation in recommending her - I can`t believe how much I have learnt in four lessons only!

Report: Dina very kindly prepared me for a trip to Guatemala. As I only had a short time frame, she catered the lessons so that I could cover all of the basics and thought carefully about what I would most need. She was also happy to adapt the lessons based on certain activities I told her I would be doing. I would definitely recommend Dina! Thank you for all of your help.
