Spanish Reinforcement. For those interested in their language, speaking, and writing.

From 56 C$ /h

In this Spanish course, I'll help you improve your speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills.
Through conversations, podcasts, movies, and the occasional book, which I hope to recommend. Plus, of course, exercises we'll do together to help you fully understand them. Although I'll be there primarily to support you if you have questions or would like to review something specific.

The idea is to help you improve your Spanish, whether you've been learning it in class, have been studying it for a long time, or are just learning it for the first time.
If you are interested, write to me to find out your plan.
PS: My schedule is quite flexible.

Extra information

If you have any text, audio, or exercise you'd like to work on, bring it! As well as something to write on.

About Me

I'd never been a teacher before, at least not a paid one. When I was little and my sister invited her friends over, I often played at teaching them whatever. I also did this with my mother and grandmother.
Later on, life made me move to another country several times, forcing me to learn new languages each time: at the age of 5 I was learning French at the Santo Domingo high school, at 8 I began to fall in love with Spanish literature and so much so that I have been fond of Cervantes, Lorca, Gloria Fuertes, Llosa, Márquez, Borges and many others to this day, participating in poetry and literature competitions.
Years later, I was able to find (almost) my own style (I think) and develop an interest in other, more international writers. I also studied Chinese when I lived in Ecuador at the age of 12, which was very difficult for me.
In the midst of all this, I also learned English, partly for courses, partly for myself, and partly for a study trip to Cambridge.
And finally, French again here in Geneva, where the learning process felt more bearable.

In short, I've experienced several types of language teaching. And I must admit that the most effective is immersive, where you're forced to learn the language to succeed. So don't take it personally if I only speak to you in Spanish in my course—it's all for the learning!
Even so, I must say that I'm a support group, as learning a language isn't usually easy. To develop a deeper understanding of the language, we can watch and listen to movies, review conjugations, do translations, and even take a literature workshop if you'd like.

Having been a teacher for over ten years in Geneva, I am passionate about my work and, more generally, about the French language.

I can help you with both language and literature; together we will find ways for you to progress. My goal is to give meaning to knowledge and to show that you can study French while having fun! I also hold a Master's degree in modern French, general history, and French teaching.

I offer weekly monitoring through an online platform, so you can measure your progress and practice outside of lessons. I like to offer several means of learning, from the most basic (doing exercises, copying sentences) to the most modern (playing small games, watching videos ...). It all depends on the student and their expectations.

It is quite possible for me to help with the writing / correction of work, to finish; I will not do them for you of course, but can provide you with the support and follow-up you need to make them happen. See you soon !

To know a language is to be able to speak it. Too often, we do not learn vocabulary lists and grammar rules, without being able to utter a single word. This does not interest me!
My goal when I learn a language is to speak it, to communicate, to be able to fend for myself without the aid of a translator, and to learn through the language the mysteries of culture.
When I exercise my role as a teacher, I always have these same goals in mind. I therefore base my courses in a communicative approach that aims to be able to talk and share since the first class. For this I use role plays, scenarios, dialogues and other exercises related to the reality of the learner.

To improve your Spanish, I can also offer you readings adapted to your level or converse with you for an hour, for example.

All other requests are welcome, I am happy to adapt to everyone's needs.

Foreign languages play a central role in our life. "Language is a people's card of nobility" (Vasile Alecsandri). It is the heritage of a nation, of a country with its spiritual values, its people, its national heritage. I will help you improve your oral and written communication in foreign languages to help you in your exchanges abroad, to discover new horizons towards the unknown, to immerse yourself in a new culture, to make you discover a new way of thought and to promote your openness to others. My classes are adapted to the needs and interests of the student.

“We are only transmitters of knowledge”

I wish to bring to my students some of the enrichments that led me to the smooth and silky paths of literature and writing. From B. Fondane, through Homer, Giono, M. Solaar, Kafka, Kerouac, and Garcia Lorca.

I therefore offer writing workshops, which will allow you to deepen your knowledge of French by discovering authors that you might never have discovered.

It is therefore anything but a school course; the aim is to teach through a participatory and dynamic approach.

- study of texts
- theatrical reading
- composition of poems / songs
- writing short stories
- literary history
- art history

I offer personalized Spanish lessons for children, teenagers and adults, from beginner to advanced level.

Spanish is my native language and I am a teacher with over 15 years of teaching experience.

My method is dynamic, practical and tailored to each student's objectives. We can work on conversation, comprehension, vocabulary, grammar and oral and written expression, always in a concrete and motivating context.

With children, I favour a particularly playful and creative approach through games, songs, rhythm, stories and various activities adapted to their age.

With teenagers and adults, lessons can be geared towards conversation, academic support, improving general level or simply the desire to communicate more fluently in Spanish.

My goal is for each student to progress at their own pace, gain confidence, and use Spanish in a natural and lively way.

I offer Latin lessons tailored to the level and objectives of each student, with work focused on grammar, syntax and especially translation methods.

The goal is to help students understand the mechanics of the language, analyze sentences methodically, and gradually gain independence and confidence. We can work on difficulties encountered in class as well as preparing for homework, tests, and exams. Depending on individual needs, lessons can cover declensions, conjugations, syntax, grammatical analysis, translation, and reviewing texts studied in class.

I study literature and philosophy at university and have extensive experience in private tutoring. I adapt my teaching method to each student's pace and difficulties. Lessons can be one-off, to prepare for a specific exam, or regular to ensure long-term progress and support.

Why does learning a foreign language seem so difficult?

Often, it's not a question of talent, but of method. With concrete support tailored to your goals, speaking with ease and confidence becomes possible, and faster than you think.

My name is Rubén and I have two years of experience in private tutoring, during which I helped each student achieve specific goals. I have taught English to a child and helped a German student pass his Spanish exams, in addition to numerous other tutoring activities in Spain.

I have studied and worked in all the languages I speak and teach: Spanish, my native language, English at C1 level, German at B2 level and French at B2 level. I therefore know from the inside the difficulties one encounters when learning a language, and the tips for overcoming them.

I was able to put my method to the test both in exams and in the professional world, combining daily oral practice with preparation for official certifications.
