English and Spanish adapted to your needs

I am a primary & secondary Spanish school teacher (from Spain), I taught Spanish Language and Literature in England for more than 20... years. In that country I trained as a MFL (Modern Foreign Language) I developed prophessionally attending university courses, such as Teaching MFL in The National Curruculum (Brunel University) and DTLLS (Diploma Teaching in the Lifelonglearning Sector, Christ Church University). My teaching methodoly is a mixture of classical (Communicative Approach) and more modern styles (Task Based Method) aiming always to enable students to communicate in the target language, using the 4 skills (speaking, listening, reading and writing). I tend to put emphasis on practising speaking, as this is something that students cannot assess by themselves as easily as the other 3 skills. I am very creative, and use 'realia' as much as possible, this means authentic materials, from reading information in a packet of ceral to films, songs, podcasts, poems, novels, newspapers articles... depending on the students' level.

I am an English and Spanish University Degree Professor, enthusiastic and experienced in teaching especially the English language for many... years. Teaching is the most wonderful experience of my life and my experience allows me to have the ability to teach and stimulate students with creativity and passion. I offer English and Spanish lessons using a communicative method where the student is trained in the development of the four "language skills": speaking, listening, reading and writing, learning expressions to communicate effectively in English or Spanish in different everyday situations and trained to read, listen, understand and write in the new language without resorting to translation. In each lesson students put into practice the new words, forms, functions that they have been taught. It will be like acquiring their own language, in a totally simple and natural way where they develop confidence and ability to participate and support a simple, common covenrsation that can arise in our life; in short, they will feel prepared to speak in the foreign language as if they were native people. What do I like most of my job? My goal is that students acquire the new language; when I see them reading, listening, writing and speaking in English or Spanish is a profound satisfaction for me. I have been teaching since the age of 16 just for passion. This motivated me to study a carreer which prepared me with the pedagogy and gave me the right tools to teach properly. During all these years I have got in love with my profession and my students are special to me. My classfes are not a simple class where students just listen to the teacher and repeat; I provide them all the supporting material they need where vocabulary, characters, themes, functions, situations are introduced. I have also organized outdoor activities which help students use the language in real situations. My students are people of all ages, children, teenagers, adults, professionals and different cultural background. I am able to work with all of them perfectly. I usually plan my classes in advance and directed especially to the needs of each student. Read more

Hi :) My name is Katarzyna and I could be your teacher of English. Why choosing me could be the best choice of your life? That’s an easy... question. First of all, I have done university studies to be a teacher of English so I haven’t only mastered theoretical part of the profession but also thanks to more than 10 years of work with international students I’ve acquired broad knowledge based on experience as a teacher. I have graduated from Maria Curie-Skłodowska University, done some international Uni exchanges in Spain and European Union educational programmes as well as University of Cambridge Certification called CELTA. What is more, I have been an enthusiastic language learner my entire life and I know what it’s like to learn a language, must say have been often taken as a native speaker which proves efficiency of my techniques. My teaching methods mostly depend on the students themselves. Needs, skills, preferences and time play crucial role in the process of language learning in an efficient way. Simply speaking – you are the boss of the classes and I am in charge of giving you best suited for your needs tools to achieve your lingustic goal. My keyword for success it REVISION, revision in plenty of different forms as a way of absorning new concepts like a sponge. I am more than happy to receive any suggestions to be included in our programme whether it is a relaxing class to enjoy speaking English, writing workshop or an exam preparation. My materials include wide variety of officialy approved materials as well as games, life based listenings and readings, conversational dialogues and exam preparation. Learning English is not only about studying, it is a journey of culture and a new perspective I would love to invite you to embark on with me. Read more
