I am from Madrid but I live in London because I work here. Moreover, I am preparing all type of official Spanish exams (DELE, SIELE, A Level, GCSE).

My teaching method is based on my qualifications and teaching experience. Moreover, I take into account the main goals of my students and I provide all the materials.

My methodology:
- Personalized material.
- Plan based on your goals.
- Integrated skills.
- Exam preparation.
- Learning through oral communication.
- Daily communication via email for correcting homework, send information, answer doubts or any student requirement.
- Grammar and vocabulary innovative methods to learn Spanish.
- Apps to learn Spanish.
- Motivation and curiosity.

Willing to travel: 50 miles

Experience: I have plenty of teaching experience.

Since I was 17 years old, I have been teaching students of very different ages (from 7 to 16 years old). In addition, the last four years I have taught adults Spanish as a foreign language and English. Besides, I have taught people with special learning process difficulties. I have experience teaching Spanish, English Maths, Science and Physical Education.

Speaking about learning a new language, I personally think that a lot of times are more helpful to translate a complete phrase or expression than thinking in the translation word by word. The knowledge of these expressions and phrases could help to make the translation automatically, giving a more fluent speaking.

I am friendly and personable with my students, and as I get to know them personally, they feel more comfortable and relaxed in their learning process.
In the past I helped students with their homework, but I always motivated them to think by themselves in their answers.
