I am a native English teacher from London with a CELTA-TEFL certificate, with almost 14 years experience as a teacher and have been a freelance teacher since 2015. I have experience in two summer schools in England and one summer camp and most recently working with the Universidad Internacional de Menéndez Pelayo and the Spanish Ministry of Education for Berlitz ,teaching English in an immersion course to university students.
I am a university graduate and I am currently studying a second degree (“English Studies – Literature, Culture and Language”) with the UNED (National Distance Learning University).
I have good communication skills acquired in various jobs by dealing directly with clients and students, which is important for conversation classes so that students feel more comfortable.
I make the classes creative, interactive and clear, creating my own teaching materials as long as I see that the student needs it. Apart from that, during classes, I point out the most important mistakes, not only in grammar but also in pronunciation, false friends and lack of vocabulary, reviewing them frequently.
If I see that it is necessary to re-study the vocabulary or even the grammar in more detail, I use online educational tools such as Quizlet, Educaplay and Kahoot, which makes my classes more dynamic, effective and fun.
Sometimes there are students who want proofreading and translations, and I make sure I do them with great attention to detail. It is important, therefore, to highlight that I have a fluent level of Spanish and a good level of Galician (with knowledge of other languages such as French (university level) and Italian (conversation level)).
