My teaching method is basic, I make it easy to adapt for anyone who wishes to learn..... but it works both ways, anyone wishing to learn must find their self confidence in order to make it happen.
Lessons are focused in the develop of the expression skills (writing and speaking). Every lesson is adapted to reach the student's personal goal by taking advantage on their skills and personal preferences. Every class has a grammar approach; so the student can improve not only in their vocabulary, but also in the correct use of the language in diverse contexts.
I usually teach my lesson using task based approaches, always giving priority to the student's interests and learning needs. I designed my student's learning process based on the notion of the communicative competence, briefly defined as the capacity of the student to use the language in context.
I approach topic by a combination of dynamics (pragmatic methodology) with children, easy games, storytelling and a mutual feedback at the end of the lesson. The starting point is getting to know their wishes and needs to attend to the types of intelligence and work on it.
To help my lessons I use methods and instructional material from "Instituto Cervantes", I teach the student grammar and how write it, but also I put emphasis on comunication skills, expresions and a little on Spanish culture to immerse the student in the real language.
My classes are based on the learning guide 'Dos Mundos', which is the resource I used throughout my studies at University. In the first lesson we will ascertain your competency level and work from there. My lessons are also supplemented with interesting readings, travel discussions, and cultural notes.
I apply a communicative approach. This means that lessons are marked by interaction and meaningful communication at a customised pace for all ages and student's specific purposes.
I try to make my lessons interesting. When the student feels motivate and positive. I combinate grammatic, reading, listening and speaking lessons. Sometimes is so boring only study grammatic as an oldfashioned school. I use material like videos and audios on interesting topics. Is very important to me that my student feel confident whit me. In that way, they can ask any question.
First, I want to know what is the reason and motivation of the student(s) to learn Spanish, whether they have some bases, and what is their objective. After that, we can arrange the classes to follow that goal, give some basic knowledge and build from there. I like to practise and ensure previous lessons with games.
In general, each class is divided into two parts: in the first stage a conversation is established according to the topics that the student expressed interest, and about which I as a teacher must be previously informed, and then dynamic activities are proposed according to the Spanish level of each person.
- I use my own books, handouts for written and comprehension practices, - I use images/pictures methods for students to describe whats in the picture speaking in Spanish - Live training speaking spanish with me or introduce spanish friends or community (filed trip) for student to learn latin america culture and language practice.
I'm a very fun and motivated person who loves that her students learn throughout a funny and entertaining way.
I like to tailor my classes to each person depending on what they would like to achieve with their Spanish. My first lesson usually consists of understanding what is your previous knowledge and what are the main areas you would like to focus on. I also like to know what are the ways you like to learn or find it easier to retain information.
I consider that the best way to learn is by exploring several approaches of an specific topic. I like to develop the hability of self- learning on my students and to be critic about many aspects of live as posible.
My name is Alba and I am 25 years old, native Spanish teacher graduated in the University of Barcelona (UB). I believe in interactive and fun lessons. I base my lessons in students necessities, each person needs to improve different skills, and my task as a teacher is to adapt the lesson structure to each student, so in my teaching methodology the student is the focus.
My teaching method is a direct one, trying to get students familiar with daily situations and teach them how to strive even if they have few resources to do so. I like to teach in a participative way, where everybody feels integrated in the lesson and people are enjoying and having fun.
My lessons are suitable for those who want to improve their spoken and written spanish. Mainly beginners and intermediate students. I have deep knowledge of the language and can help with vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation. My teaching methods are focused on understanding the needs of the students, first of all, and then develop methods and exercises in order to let them improve.
My lessons are geared toward the students who want to start learning Spanish from scratch(for any purpose) or who have Spanish as foreign language in their curriculum. The lesson structure will be - 1. Importance of Spanish 2. Alphabets 3. Numbers 4. Seasons, Months & Days of the week. 5. How to say time in Spanish! 6. Daily greetings. 7. Verbs & their conjugation 8. Vocabulary 9.
I am native Spanish, so I am confident to teach both written/grammar focused classes or oral/vocabulary improving ones. I've had cases where parents wanted me to do fun activities and games for kids to engage with the language and others that preferred to continue with what they were learning on school.
I plan and adapt lessons' programs according to students individual needs and goals, keeping them focused and motivated throughout all the teaching-learning process. I like to try different approaches and teaching styles to find out what fits best with each student.
My teaching method focuses on grammar, conversation and experiential learning in addition to fostering a cultural understanding of the Hispanic world.
My teaching method is: 1. Test the Spanish level that the student(s) have 2. Identify general needs 3. Prepare material and strategies to develope the class. (variety of activities like games, role play etc) 4.
My teaching method involves active student participation with constant support and feedback. Lessons vary depending on the type of language skills students are studying. My approach has a strong component in real-life situations and constant evaluation in a safe environment.
I teach by demonstrating the right pronunciation, body language, use of correct words and expressions. I use videos to reinforce my teaching. I make my classes fun, interactive and enjoyable. My classes are practical and realistic. I use everyday lessons and learning as evaluation.
I approach topics by • Level of the language • Personal interests • Selected interest topics • Introduction to the topic of interest. • Practical review with videos, songs, movies, discussions, articles, games or any material of interest.
I will create lesson plans and teaching materials, providing instruction, assigning homework, grading tests, making suggestions to students, maintaining classroom records, and motivate students. For the grammar we will follow the book Easy Spanish step by step and Develop listening, reading, speaking and writing skills by plenty of Spanish activities.
My teaching method is based on achieving a good level of Spanish through enjoyable methods, such as conversation, readings adapted to each student and audiovisual methods. I am learning a language myself, so I understand the difficulties that can arise as a student and how to deal with them.
My teaching method is a balance between an organised learning plan and the student's needs and interests. I base my lessons on oral communication and attractive tasks, since I think having a good time is really important when learning a foreign language. I like using visual material, social media, role plays and arts & crafts.
I base my classes depending on your needs. Tutoring, preparation for exams like DELE or just conversational lessons. Now that I am living in Gold Coast, we can meet to have face to face classes, individually, in a group, or even online.
I focus my lessons in what the student needs. I also try to enforce and review the basis of the language. I try to do dynamic lessons with grammar exercises, writting skills and compression, reading and listening compression. Vocabulary divided by sections. Improvement of pronunciation and accent.
