English is a very desirable skill to have in a competitive job market, and it's helpful to have for social situations, too! My classes are tailored to you and your preferences. If you would like to focus on certain topics or prefer conversation, grammar, or listening, I will cater it to you. I can work with both children and adults and we will make it fun!

Hello! Here are some details about my teaching method.

• Initial evaluation

Before starting, I assess the student's level to identify their strengths, areas for improvement, and learning objectives.

• Dynamic and comprehensive methodology

The classes are designed to be motivating and participatory, working in a balanced way on the main language skills:
- Grammar: understanding and correct use of grammar.
- Writing: clear and creative writing.
- Listening: listening comprehension through audio, songs and videos.
- Vocabulary: learning new words in practical contexts.

• Resources and activities

I use a variety of interactive materials for children to enjoy while they learn: games, adapted readings, songs, digital activities, and practical exercises that strengthen confidence and motivation.

• School support

I provide homework support, exam preparation, and guided practice for oral presentations, reinforcing students' confidence in expressing themselves in English in the academic setting.

• Focus on communication

In addition to academic content, I place special emphasis on pronunciation and conversation, fostering fluency and confidence in communicating in real-life situations.

• Modality and flexibility

• Flexible schedules, adapted to the needs of each family.

I have a high school diploma and an advanced level of English and French. I also have experience tutoring elementary school children, friends of my younger sister, and translating advertising materials for a hotel from English to Spanish. This experience has helped me develop a keen eye for detail and the ability to explain things clearly, skills I believe translate well to teaching.
I know how important it is to be patient with young children and make chores feel less like a chore and more like something manageable and even fun. My idea would be to support your child every day, without pressure, at their own pace.

Do you find it difficult to express yourself in English even though you understand quite a bit? Would you like to speak with more confidence, naturalness, and fluency?

My name is Álvaro and I have experience living in the United States and Ireland, as well as a TEFL – Full Circle 360 qualification specializing in teaching English as a foreign language.

My classes are especially focused on improving oral expression and helping you feel comfortable speaking English in real-life situations.

We will work primarily through:

🗣️ Everyday conversations and situations
💬 Debates and expression of opinions
🎲 Games and activities to help you speak naturally
🎬 Movies, series, videos and songs
🌍 Travel, culture and experiences
🎭 Role plays and real-life situations
📖 Useful vocabulary and expressions to help you communicate better
🔊 Pronunciation and fluency

The idea is for you to speak from the very first minute. During our conversations, I'll correct your mistakes and help you find more natural ways to express yourself, always adapting to your level.

I'm not looking for you to memorize endless vocabulary lists: I want you to learn to use English to truly communicate and gradually lose your fear of speaking.

The classes are fully adapted to your level, interests and goals, whether you are starting out or already have a good level and want to gain fluency.

I am a Hispanic Philology student and an experienced private tutor of English and Spanish. I offer classes tailored to the level and needs of each student, for both school students and adults.

In my classes we work on grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension, and oral and written expression, using practical and dynamic activities to facilitate learning. I also prepare students for exams and provide reinforcement on the topics they find most challenging.

My goal is for each student to progress steadily, gain confidence, and be able to use the language practically in real-life situations. I adapt the materials and methodology to each person's pace.

I offer private tutoring for primary school students, adapting to each student's individual needs. I can help with English, Spanish, homework, exam preparation, and other subjects where they need support. My goal is for them to learn in a simple, enjoyable, and confident way.
I can also take care of the little ones in the mornings, accompanying them, playing with them and helping them with whatever they need.

I have a deep passion and innate interest in teaching French, which stems from my own experience. At the age of 13, my mother, who studied at the Sorbonne in Paris, began teaching me before I received any formal schooling. Learning this first foreign language broadened my horizons and opened up numerous opportunities, not only socially, but especially professionally.

I recognize that my students' goals and motivations will vary considerably. Therefore, one of the fundamental principles of a good teacher is to understand these individual motivations and use them to guide curriculum development and teaching methods.

I am a native English speaker from the UK, and I am currently an undergraduate student in Madrid at IE University. I can offer immersive English lessons for all levels. My lessons would be conducted fully in English in order to make the most of the time. I would focus on speaking and listening; however, we can also focus on writing if that is a goal for the student. I assign homework after every lesson and provide periodic progress reports. The lessons can be for conversation practice, homework help and exam prep.

English classes for students and adults who would like to develop their communication skills in a second language.

Spanish classes for foreigners that aim to develop their communicative skills in a Spanish-speaking context, respecting Latin American and Spanish variants.

Totally dynamic and fun classes where you will learn a second language in a natural way through immersion exercises and development according to your pace.

Learning a language should help you communicate, not make you afraid of making mistakes.
I am a philologist, language teacher, and doctoral researcher with over eight years of experience teaching Spanish to students from various countries and proficiency levels. Above all, I recognize that everyone learns differently.
That is why my classes are tailored to you—to your level, your interests, and your specific goals. We can focus on conversation, grammar, pronunciation, writing, or Spanish and English for work, studies, travel, or simply to help you speak with greater confidence.
I enjoy explaining the "why" behind things clearly and simply, without turning the lesson into an endless stream of rules. We will work with real-life situations, topics that interest you, and concrete objectives so you can see your progress firsthand.
Whether you have studied a language for years but still freeze up when speaking, understand far more than you can express, or simply want to start from scratch with a solid foundation, we can work together.
My goal is simple: for you to need me less and less as you become increasingly capable of handling the language on your own.
Tell me what you want to achieve, and we’ll design your lessons around that.
