Hello, dear language enthusiasts! My name is Cristina, I am native from Barcelona and I am thrilled to be your language teacher. As an experienced educator, I am passionate about languages and the exciting world they open up for us. With a warm heart and an inquisitive mind, I have experience teaching CAE, FCE, IELTS, TOEFL, job interviews and levels from general English and Spanish from A1-C2.I am eager to embark on this language-learning journey together!
Languages have always fascinated me, and I have been fortunate to explore various linguistic landscapes during my academic and personal pursuits. My journey began at an early age when I fell in love with the melodious sounds of different tongues and the unique stories they carried within their words. From that point on, my interest in linguistics and language acquisition has only deepened.
As your language teacher, my primary goal is to create a welcoming and supportive environment where you feel comfortable expressing yourself in the target language. I believe that language learning goes beyond the technical aspects of grammar and vocabulary; it is a gateway to understanding diverse cultures, connecting with people from all walks of life, and broadening our horizons.
Throughout our lessons, I will use a communicative and immersive approach to language teaching. This means we will engage in real-life conversations, role-plays, games, and various interactive activities to strengthen your practical language skills. I find that this approach not only enhances your speaking and listening abilities but also boosts your confidence in using the language in authentic situations.
Apart from speaking and listening, I also emphasize the importance of reading and writing in language acquisition. We will explore captivating literary works, newspapers, articles, and blogs, which not only expose you to different writing styles but also offer glimpses into the cultural nuances of the language.
As a language enthusiast, I am constantly updating my knowledge and keeping an eye on the latest developments in language teaching methodologies. I believe in using technology to our advantage and integrating multimedia resources.
Outside of the classroom, you might find me immersed in a novel written in one of the languages I teach, or perhaps doing yoga or meditating for personal enjoyment. Traveling and exploring different countries and cultures is also a big part of my life, as it helps me understand the context and real-world application of the languages I teach.
Together, we will create a dynamic and engaging learning environment where you can thrive and unlock your full language-learning potential.
As a language teacher, I bring a wealth of teaching experience and a passion for empowering students to master the English language. I hold a Bachelor's degree in English Studies providing me with a strong academic foundation to effectively guide learners through their language journey.
Over the years, I have had the privilege of teaching to students of diverse backgrounds and proficiency levels, both in traditional classroom settings and online environments. This experience has honed my ability to tailor my teaching approach to meet the unique needs of each student, ensuring an inclusive and supportive learning experience for all.
My teaching methodology is based on a communicative and student-centered approach. I firmly believe that language learning is most effective when students actively engage with the language through meaningful communication. In my classroom, you can expect a dynamic and interactive learning environment, where speaking, listening, reading, and writing are seamlessly integrated.
I encourage my students to take an active role in their learning journey, fostering a sense of ownership and motivation. By providing relevant and real-life language scenarios, I help students build practical language skills that they can immediately apply in their daily lives. From casual conversations to debates and presentations, my students practice the language in authentic contexts, gaining confidence in their ability to communicate effectively.
Incorporating multimedia resources is a key aspect of my teaching methodology. Through the use of videos, audio clips, online articles, and interactive language-learning platforms, students can explore diverse language inputs, exposing them to various accents, expressions, and cultural nuances. This enriches their language experience and fosters a global perspective.
In addition to focusing on language proficiency, I also foster critical thinking and cultural awareness in my students. We delve into literature, discussing classic and contemporary works that provide insights into different societies and historical contexts.
Let's explore the beauty and intricacies of language together, and I look forward to witnessing your progress as we embark on this enriching journey!
