Tailor-made English classes for Spanish speakers

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Hello everyone!

My name is Patricia. I am a bilingual English/Spanish speaker and a certified language teacher. I have been teaching Spanish and English as foreign languages since 2004.

I completed my linguistic studies at the National University of Salta and the Institute of English Studies.

I am a committed, responsible, and professional teacher, constantly in training. My patience knows no bounds, and I can find a thousand ways to explain anything if necessary.

This is a specific English course for native Spanish speakers designed to help you maintain basic communication with people in your work, family, and daily life in just a few weeks.

I specialize in designing customized courses for each of my students, taking into account their knowledge, needs, interests, and requirements. In 19 years as a teacher, I have never taught the same course twice. I can compile and produce study materials exclusively for each student. Are you interested in learning American English? Or are you more comfortable with British English? I'd be happy to plan your classes for the language variety that best suits your needs and tastes. Do you have a job interview? Do you live in the Netherlands and your family, colleagues, and friends only speak English? Do you need to converse with your children's teachers? Don't worry, with my classes, you can do all this and much more in just a few weeks of study.

I'm passionate about languages and communication; teaching is my calling. With me, grammar will never be a problem. I can even promise you that you'll enjoy it and have fun!

I look forward to your message :)

About Me

¡Hola a todos!

I'm a committed, responsible and professional person, who is always eager to learn new things and in permanent training. My patience is infinite and I can find around a thousand ways to explain something if it's necessary :)

I can make a course specifically for you, according to your knowledge, needs, interests, and requests. In 14 years of doing this, I've never taught the same course twice. I can even compile and produce tailor-made study material for you. Since I'm absolutely passionate about Spanish, I've studied its different varieties around the world, so I can guarantee that with my classes you'll be able to speak in any Spanish speaking country.

Over the years I've worked with a wide variety of students from teenagers to adults, from complete beginners to proficient people who just wanted to practice speaking. I also help students prepare for the DELE exams, I've done so in the past several years with excellent results.

I'm in love with languages and communication and teaching is my calling, my passion. With me grammar will never ever be an issue, furthermore, I can promise you that sometimes you'll even enjoy it and have fun!

I am English and speak fluent Dutch. Spanish has always been a language that I loved and wanted to learn. So, I took the plunge and started learning with Patricia. Patricia is such a dedicated highly professional teacher, full of enthusiasm. She inspires me by using all kinds of different lesson methods. Reading, watching films, various writing exercises that she creates herself, she also encourages students to attend monthly get togethers where we all speak Spanish together around a well adorned table of food and drink with a Spanish speaking country as the theme. Her patience with my slow talking and constant mistakes with word endings and verbs is just amazing!! I have been learning for more than half a year now and I hope many more years to come.Thank you Patricia! I highly recommend this teacher.
Patricia is a great teacher - I am having a lot of fun and am learning a lot in her lessons. She is engaging, talks and instructs clearly, has good advice and is extremely patient with my halting Spanish!
Very sweet and patient teacher

Private French lessons for adults and teenagers with native French speaker in Co. Mayo
For the past two decades, I've had the privilege of tutoring in both French and English. My students have ranged in age, background, and origin, spanning children, teenagers, adults, professionals, and even seniors aged 85 and above. You might wonder why I teach both languages. Well, I am bilingual, with American and Swiss/French roots, and I currently reside in Ireland. This unique blend of experiences equips me with a strong and relevant teaching approach. I possess an intimate understanding of both cultures, enabling me to tailor my classes to the specific needs of my students. My teaching journey began during my time studying social work in French-speaking Switzerland. I started offering private French and English lessons to supplement my income, and I quickly discovered my passion for it. Even after graduating and embarking on a full-time career, I couldn't bear to give up this rewarding activity. I cherished the opportunity to connect with diverse individuals and assist them in achieving their language goals. In my teaching methodology, interactivity takes center stage. I employ a variety of engaging learning tools, including photos, newspaper articles, music, videos, and more. My approach is highly adaptable, with a focus on addressing each student's unique priorities. Some seek to refine their pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, while others require assistance with presentations or speeches for school or work. Some simply aspire to acquire a new language to enrich their general knowledge. I also specialize in teaching younger children, a testament to my educational background and experience. What you will gain from my courses extends beyond impeccable pronunciation and enhanced vocabulary and grammar. You'll also acquire a profound understanding of the culture associated with each language. When speaking a language, it's essential to appreciate the lifestyle, traditions, and heritage of the nations where it thrives. French and English are spoken as primary languages in numerous countries worldwide, each with its own unique accent and cultural nuances. The learning process is limitless! In addition to my language instruction, I'm a genealogist and host spiritual (non-religious) seminars in the beautiful West of Ireland. My passion for vegetarian and vegan cuisine adds a flavorful dimension to my life. Furthermore, I hold a degree in Early Childhood Education and have operated a private "Before & Afterschool" facility along with Summer Camps catering to children aged 4 to 12 for many years. I am genuinely excited about the prospect of meeting and working with you!

give courses in languages and applied biochemistry
My name is Younes and I give language lessons, for me teaching means learning twice so my learning method is based on simplicity and above all you have to move forward according to the student's rhythm to allow him to learn. improve and acquire new bases and be able to assimilate new information without ever becoming saturated. Sometimes it's better to go slowly but surely. In addition, I am a young researcher in applied biochemistry and a temporary teacher at the university for 4 years, so for those who have difficulties and gaps in biochemistry, I will be there to simplify you and above all to make you discover the world. wonder of biochemistry and thank you for stopping by.

Non-formal Latin classes. Multilingual teacher with 10 years of experience. Pronunciation, historical linguistics, semantics.
Contrary to popular belief, learning Latin is not like learning the phone book by heart. I offer you Latin lessons that are unlike any other. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you take the train back and forth every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Learn the schedules by heart. 2) Note that the train arrives every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in study notebooks and in ordinary courses, it is the first approach which is adopted - in the courses that I offer you, it is the second because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both students and adults who want to learn the Latin language or deepen their knowledge without time-consuming detours through the insanities of school methods which do not produce results. Learning is easy but unlearning what has become a bad habit is extremely difficult. All the more important it is to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning in a positive state of mind. I offer individual or group Latin lessons (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive sciences and in particular historical linguistics. What will not be the subject of the course: learn lists of verbs; learn lists of nouns with their gender; learn words with their translations; memory card game; doing school exercises; follow the program in a notebook; impose French grammar on the Latin language. What matters to me in particular: motivate my student and give him a learning rhythm; encourage creativity; make friends with language; letters and their sounds strengthen your memory by working on the phonological loop; teach construction plans instead of having people learn sentences by heart; explain how the language works to make my student independent as quickly as possible; breaking preconceived ideas such as the gammatical gender would have a link with the biological gender, the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, the verbs would be irregular, the declension would be random and therefore to be learned with each verb... ; place practice at the center and articulate grammar around practice. In the context of a first course, you can get a well-founded idea of my pedagogy. I look forward to meeting you.

And at the end of each session, I give lessons with exercises to do as homework to examine your gaps and monitor your progress.

Erika
Spanish & English Lessons with Erika in Belgium :)
Teaching is my passion, and as a native speaker, I've had the pleasure of connecting with students worldwide, starting from my experiences in the Czech Republic where I used to teach English to children. We can delve into the intricacies of communication, focusing on what matters to you. I prepare students for tests like DELE and SIELE, tailoring my approach to your unique goals—whether it's acing an exam, exploring the world, or simply diving into language and culture. My lessons take a casual twist—we might stroll around, grab a coffee or tea, and make learning an enjoyable experience. The best part for me is when students express gratitude for our time together. I believe language is more than just words, and I look forward to sharing my perspective with you. Can't wait to meet you and start this language journey together!
