English with a native, English classes with a native
My methodology is influenced by what I have learned as well as my own experience learning a foreign language. I try to make the learning process fun and break down the English language into more manageable and easy-to-understand pieces so that you can use them with confidence when constructing ideas and sentences. I use real materials to generate conversation and practice English that goes beyond what you see in a book. I always try to adapt my classes to the needs and objectives of my students; We can delve into some grammatical concepts, practice how to write a professional email or simply have a conversation about the current events of the day.

Luis Emilio
Interactive and very dynamic Online Courses in English, Spanish, French and Italian.
Unique and dynamic interactive learning courses directly with the teacher in online classes. Learning in an agile, dynamic and very easy way! First you must complete the placement exam to know what level you are at or if you start from scratch, we will start with the most basic without having to take the exam. Then in each class we will work in units on all the concepts you need to learn more about the language and while you do the dynamic and interactive activities you will be developing aspects of reading, writing, grammar, listening and diction. Remember that when learning a new language, you must always change your internal communication to the language you are learning, for example, if you are learning English you must start thinking about your internal dialogue in English, with the concepts that you learn each class and in this way develop your understanding of the new language.

I give Private English classes at Home and / or Online
I have pedagogical experience with children from 4 to 16 years old, at the same time I have also worked with adults and the experience has been very positive. The classes would be personalized, so that is why the first class is for evaluation and testing and the rest will be adjusted to the student.

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.

English(Improve Academic/Language skills, Terminology, Proofreading Thesis/Papers ): Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced
English as a language is not only widely spoken but also, has made itself a prerequisite to the international world. Even if it is academic or just a beginner learning it for the first time, I will be helping you learn and master the English language just as I did until I achieved my dream of attending a university in English. Reading, Listening, Writing, and Speaking are essential fundamentals to truly master a language so we will have a lot of experience during our sessions in all of them depending on the student's needs.
