    About Me

    I began my career teaching Spanish as a second language in 1978 when I met CIDOC (Centro de Documentación en Cuernavaca) Morelos. In that year he studied anthropology at the National School of Anthropology and History in Mexico City. I was invited to the IDEAL school to prepare myself in teaching Spanish as a second language. I learned from this great opportunity to know the Spanish language getting knowledge in andragogy. For several years I continued to study and research more about andragogy and pragmatics.
    In 1980 I learned about Communication Experience in Cuernavaca and joined the team of Spanish teachers applying methods such as the FSI (Foreing Service Intitute) as well as studying and attending Diplomas in the Teaching of Spanish as a Second Language in several universities in Mexico.
    I did volunteer work in 1985 for a year for the Diocese of San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas to work with Guatemalan refugees inside the Lacandona Jungle on the border with Guatemala. I gained extraordinary experiences knowing first-hand the situation of Guatemalan refugees in the border state of Chiapas, Mexico. Lesley College conducted an interview of my work where she showed the precarious situation in which Guatemalan refugees lived. When I returned I joined The Center for Bilingual and Multicultural Studies in the city of Cuernavaca, where I coordinated excursions to different cities and/or archaeological sites and museums.
    Later I joined the UAEM (National Autonomous University of the State of Morelos) where I taught Spanish classes, coordinated groups, was a lecturer and offered the first Spanish Diploma for future teachers within the same university in 2000.
    In 2003 I traveled to the United States to work with LACA (Latino Advocacy in Community Affairs) there I created and opened immersion programs to culture in Mexico with UNIVAC (Universidad del Valle de Cuernavaca)

    Structure and Components: Daily Schedule: Morning Session (4 hours): 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM: Intensive classes focusing on grammar, vocabulary, and sentence structure. This session would include lectures, exercises, and interactive activities to build foundational knowledge. Lunch Break (1 hour): 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM: Students have a break to rest, eat lunch, and recharge. Afternoon Session (4 hours): 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM: Practical application and communication skills. This session might involve group discussions, debates, role-plays, and immersive activities such as visiting local markets or interacting with native speakers. Dinner Break (1 hour): 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM: Another break for students to relax and have dinner. Evening Session (2 hours): 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM: Cultural immersion and reinforcement. This session could include watching Spanish films, listening to music, or engaging in cultural workshops to deepen understanding of Spanish-speaking cultures. Teaching Methods: Immersion: All communication during classes and activities would be conducted in Spanish, encouraging students to think and respond in the language. Interactive Learning: Emphasis on interactive exercises, pair work, and group activities to practice speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills. Feedback and Correction: Immediate feedback from instructors to correct pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary usage. Support and Resources: Language Lab: Access to a language lab for additional practice with listening exercises and pronunciation drills. Library and Study Materials: Comprehensive library resources and digital materials for self-study and reinforcement outside of class hours. Tutoring Sessions: Optional one-on-one tutoring sessions for personalized attention and extra practice. Cultural Integration: Excursions: Planned visits to local cultural sites, museums, or neighborhoods where students can interact with native speakers in authentic contexts. Language Exchange Programs: Opportunities for students to engage in language exchange with native speakers outside of class. Benefits: Rapid Progress: Intensive exposure to the language accelerates learning and retention of vocabulary and grammar structures. Immersion Experience: Continuous exposure to the language throughout the day helps students develop fluency and confidence in speaking. Cultural Understanding: Integration of cultural activities and experiences enhances understanding and appreciation of Spanish-speaking cultures. Challenges: Physical and Mental Stamina: Maintaining focus and energy throughout long hours of intensive learning can be demanding. Time for Rest and Reflection: Balancing intensive study with breaks and relaxation to avoid burnout. Variety and Engagement: Keeping activities varied and engaging to sustain motivation and interest over long hours. In summary, a super-intensive Spanish language program of 12 consecutive hours per day offers a comprehensive and immersive learning environment designed to maximize language acquisition and cultural understanding within a condensed timeframe.

    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!

    Kevin
    Polyglot specialist with 9 years of experience. German in speed mode. Level A1 to C2. No school teaching.
    I offer you a German course that is not like the others. There are two types of courses. Here is an analogy to illustrate their respective approaches: If you travel back and forth by train every day and don't have time to wait long at the platform, imagine that you only have two options: 1) Memorise the timetable. 2) Realise that the train comes every ten minutes and that a train arrives for example at 7:00 a.m. In school pedagogy, in textbooks and in normal lessons, the first approach is used - in the course I am offering you, it is the second approach because it is more economical and faster. My offer is aimed at both pupils and adults who want to learn the German language without time-consuming detours through the madness of fruitless school methods. Learning is easy, but unlearning things that have become bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, with my customised lessons you will greatly accelerate the learning process while having a positive attitude. I offer German lessons for individuals or groups (2 to 5 people). The methods are based on cognitive science and historical linguistics in particular. My modular programme can be adapted on a case-by-case basis. The converging point of these modules is your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life. What will not be covered in the course: learning lists of verbs; learning lists of nouns with articles; learning words with their translations; flashcards; doing school exercises; following the syllabus of a booklet; imposing the English grammar on the German language. What is particularly important to me: to motivate my student and to give him a learning rhythm; to encourage his creativity; to befriend him with the language; the letters and their sounds; to strengthen the memory by training the phonological loop; to teach blueprints instead of memorising sentences; to explain how the language works in order to make my student independent as quickly as possible; to eliminate common preconceptions, such as that 'der' would mean masculine and 'die' feminine, that the accusative would be a direct complement and the dative an indirect complement, that verbs would be irregular, that declension would be random and therefore would have to be learnt with each verb...; to put practice at the centre and only deal with grammar where necessary. A first lesson will give you a sound idea of my pedagogy.
