My name is Alberto and I am 29 years old. I speak Spanish, English, French, German and Italian. As you might have seen, one of my passions is the study of foreign languages. I love learning them, studying them, and keeping permanently in touch with them.
I have been a foreign language teacher for eight years, and I have always obtained remarkably good results. I personnally love working as a language teacher. It is another opportunity of keeping studying one specific language whereas you are helping other people to learn.
In my clases I adapt myself to the needs of my student. We practice the speaking, the writing, or any other skill the student desires. We learn also grammar and vocabulary. I like to work with spread sheets of grammar and vocabulary to consolidate the grammar basis, but I also like using other ressources, such as films, books, videos, games, songs or articles from the newspaper.
I am quite patient comprehensive and kind. All the students that came to me with problems or difficulties bearing relation to the grammar have come through them with a great success after some lessons with me.
So I look forward to welcoming you all with open arms to help you discover a new language or improve your language skills.

I used to teach elementary school children through non formal education methods: games in particular. Also by sharing experience through story telling.
I also have experience in teaching highschool students and youngsters. The methods are both non formal and formal education methods. When I teach in formal way, I use interactive tasks since most of the students like to acquire communication skills.
I adapt myself to a student's needs and let them suggest me what would they like to work on.

Hey there,
Let me tell you quickly something about me and what I do.
I am a translator by training and a compulsive traveler by birth. I love cats and salsa music. English has always been my passion and I'm here to help other people feel confident when speaking, writing and working with this language.
My teaching method is a very personal mix made of tips and methods taken from different schools of thought, many first-hand experiences I have had in the field, all combined with my mission to help students overcome their fears and blocks when it comes to English.
In my classes you will have the advantage of feeling well looked after - my preparation in cultural and language studies allows me to listen to and understand the challenges students from different linguistic backgrounds face.
If this sounds like you, let's start working together.
With dedication,
Elisabetta

Hello! Thank you for dropping by. My name is Jinky, 28, a licensed professional teacher(Primary and Secondary) from the Philippines but I am currently in Vietnam, teaching English in an international Montessori school since 2017 as well as helping building their characters. I also have private tutoring classes with primary school kids.
I am a highly qualified English teacher, with a very extensive experience working with kids of different ages, races and different levels :)
As I have been working with diverse kids, I have observed that kids/ students learn more when they are having fun and enjoying the learning experience. That being said, I tailor all the learning materials to the preferences of the students and what interests them
I'll be by your side until you come out stronger on your grammar, listening and reading and especially your speaking skills.
I hope to see you in my class! ☺️

Hi. I´m Víctor, your Spanish teacher. Even though I come from Alicante (Spain), I spent the last ten years in Poland. I know not only from my own experience how dificult it is to learn a new langauge. I know how it feels when you don´t speak perfectly and you have to break your fear to actually communicate with a foreigner. I will help you to crush this fear. With me, you can be sure that you will talk without fear.
I don´t have a fixed methodology. I believe in flexibility and adjusting the method to the needs, expectations and goals of each student. You can be sure that with all the materials I have gathered, I will use the most adequate resources to your needs.
For me the most important aspect of learning the language is the communication. I put emphasis on speaking, but I don´t forget about other skills. If you want to prepare yourself for DELE exam, you can count on me. I have experience in preparation (with success) for all levels of DELE.
