    One on One English Language Lessons (Speaking and Comprehension)

    Hi there! I'm a TEFL certified native English speaker from the US, working in Madrid as a high school English teacher and photographer. I'm so excited to be working with individuals as they deepen their understanding of the English language.

    Being bi-or multilingual, with the ability to speak English has become such a valued skill in today's world that is able to open up so many doors for people. My classes are all one to one, and I can meet you wherever you are in your process of learning Spanish. Whether you're at an absolute beginner, intermediate, or advanced level, I can create personalized lessons that help you get more comfortable with your English speaking and comprehension.

    My main goal for my classes is to conduct them in a way that is fun and easily digestible. I'm happy to meet you wherever works best for you - online, at your home, a coffee shop - wherever. My Spanish is intermediate, which comes in handy when explaining things, but we'll only use it when we have to :)

    Extra information

    Just a notebook, something to write with, and a willingness to learn. If you have a specific assignment you want to work on, you're welcome to bring that too!

    About Me

    I'm 29, and moved to Madrid from the US in November to become an English teacher and improve my Spanish. I love this city and am so happy to be here. In 2016 I received my TEFL Certificate and have since taught/tutored English language learners in Washington DC, Barcelona, Sicily, and now Madrid.

    I'm a very calm, patient, and positive person and appreciate the effort it takes to learn another language. I know it can be challenging and sometimes frustrating, so I do my absolute best to make my classes enjoyable. I really believe learning English will best position you in your endeavors, and I'm so excited to help you advance in a way that is fun and exciting.

    Clases Particulares y Clases Empresariales de Inglés General y de Business English para ejecutivos, empresas y el público en general
    I have a degree in psychology with a minor in Spanish. I hold a master's degree in Transactional Analysis, a sub-field of psychology. My hobbies include salsa music, watching movies, traveling, biking, swimming, and exercising. Before becoming an independent teacher, I taught English at a public school in Oakland, California. Previously, I served as a sales manager for a travel agency in both Mexico and California. For lessons, I begin with a diagnostic session to understand your goals, needs, and interests. This is basically an evaluation so I can see what your "wants and needs" are, as well as your goals, requirements, interests, and we'll go from there. At the end of the first session I will give you an estimate as to the timeline needed to reach your objectives. My teaching methodologies include L1-L2, Grammar, Direct Method, Communicative Approach, Eclectic Approach, Intensive Conversational Method, and Role-Play Workshops (especially useful for practicing job interviews and presentations). I specialize in General English, Business English, IELTS, and English for healthcare professionals. Typically, it takes two to three months to reach C1 level from B1-B2. I offer tailored classes, emphasizing collocations, grammar, sentence structure, speech, informal colloquial (spoken) language, phrasal verbs, idiomatic expressions, and verb-preposition usage. I also use a lot of exercises, free conversations, discussion topics, role plays and some grammar if and when needed. Most of my students are native Spanish speakers as I am fully bilingual. Feel free to reach out so we can discuss how I can assist you with your specific plans!

    I teach German, English and Spanish classes online
    Languages are my passion. If you are interested in learning spanish, english or german do not hesitate to contact me! I was born in Spain and I studied English and German Philology at the University in Bonn, Germany, where I lived for 6, 5 years. I think that learning a new language enhances your abilities to communicate with other people and broadens your horizons. German is a versatile language that has a really interesting word structure and is very useful in many academic fields. Spanish is the world`s second-most spoken native language and I would be glad to teach you this language, as it is my mother tongue. English is a relevant language with a high cultural relevance all over the world.
