About Me

Hi! It's nice to meet you! I hope I get the chance to help you with your English because I truly love teaching. I teach ages 1-16 in a Colegio in Torrejon de Ardoz, and I love every moment with my kiddos. I am very energetic, friendly, and out-going and you won't have to worry about feeling shy or nervous to practice with me.
My belief is that when people are comfortable, they are much more likely to succeed and excel in languages. For that reason, I do everything in my power to make students feel comfortable, confident and excited to learn. I welcome mistakes with open arms because after all, mistakes are the best way to learn when it comes to new languages.

A little bit about me...
I am from the United States, specifically from Pennsylvania, however, I went to school at the University of Kentucky and graduated with a degree in Psychology & Spanish Language. I love to travel and have travelled and studied abroad in Sevilla, Spain and Valparaíso, Chile.
I have worked with children for over 6 years in various settings: schools, research labs, psychology clinics, and NGOs...I have a clear passion for working with children and strongly believe that we learn as much from them as they learn from us.
In my free time, I am an avid reader, I love to sing and play instruments, and I am a big fan of musicals and theatre. I also love spending time with my friends and exploring nature and the city of Madrid.

Education

I graduated from the University of Kentucky with an average GPA of 3.89 and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology & Spanish Language. During my time in university, I studied in Sevilla, Spain for 8 months and later in Valparaiso, Chile for a summer completing an internship with an NGO for vulnerable youth.

Experience / Qualifications

As far as my experience with children, I have worked with children in various educational settings for over 6 years. Some of that experience includes volunteering as a tutor for elementary-aged children, completing an internship with a non-profit dedicated to enhancing the educational abilities of vulnerable youth in Valparaíso, Chile and working as the Developmental Coordinator for a small NGO in Lexington, Kentucky that is dedicated to helping enhance students educational abilities in an after-school setting for children living in poverty. Currently, I am completing a course in Teaching English as a Foreign Language that will be completed by May.
In terms of working with adults, I have many friends who speak English as a second language and have immensely helped them improve upon their skills in a number of ways: the main ones being through conversation and providing a comfortable environment for them to feel confident practicing and improving upon their abilities.

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!

English or what?? It will allow you to ask all kinds of questions, since doubting is the first time you learn something!!! And look at this! The more questions you ask, the better you will be with all the AUXILIARY verb puzzles, what a puzzle solving task!

I'm available almost 24/7 just like any trusted Seven/Eleven!! I say almost because as human as this teacher is, she also sleeps and eats!!

Welcome, welcome to English or What?, to my caracol house, to your English school!!!

ENG - Whether you are a beginner or an advanced English speaker, my classes focus on English learning for children, students, and adults who have difficulty speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Whether your goal is to boost your professionalism, improve your writing style, or simply enhance your knowledge, I intend to help you reach it! In the beginning session(s), I work with you to determine your level of expertise and comfortability with the language, pinpointing areas that may need extra attention. Together, we would go through the rules, structure, and other aspects of the English language that you should be aware of, assessing your knowledge through interactive activities geared toward topics that interest you. In our meetings, my intention is to help you improve your communication skills by strengthening areas of weakness, whether in vocabulary and grammar, verbal/reading comprehension, holding conversations, pronunciation, or any other area you hope to work on. At the end of each session, I like to provide valuable feedback about your progress and assign helpful practice work to enhance your understanding of the practical and theoretical aspects of the English language.

Through these one-on-one sessions, my priority is to keep it engaging and stimulating, tailoring the classes to you and your preferences!

Nas sessões iniciais, trabalho com você para determinar seu nível de conhecimento e conforto com o idioma, identificando áreas que podem precisar de atenção extra. Juntos, passaríamos pelas regras, estrutura e outros aspectos da língua inglesa que você deveria conhecer, avaliando seu conhecimento por meio de atividades interativas voltadas para temas de seu interesse. Em nossas reuniões, minha intenção é ajudá-lo a melhorar suas habilidades de comunicação, fortalecendo áreas de fraqueza, seja em vocabulário e gramática, compreensão verbal/leitura, conversas, pronúncia ou qualquer outra área que você deseje trabalhar. No final de cada sessão, gosto de fornecer feedback valioso sobre seu progresso e atribuir trabalhos práticos úteis para aprimorar sua compreensão dos aspectos práticos e teóricos do idioma inglês.

I am a teacher with a lot of experience when it comes to teaching foreign students. I propose an individualized pedagogy, and I help both with the preparation of the exams and with the acquisition of fluency in the language. My goal is to move the student forward without overloading him, plus I give homework after each lesson and periodically provide student progress reports.

The student will be able to see different places in the capital of Spain without leaving the classroom and learn Spanish. My learning idea is based on interactive activities between my student and me, with word games, card games to improve the syllabi. I will also bring printed exercises for the denser syllabi and for reading comprehension activities in Spanish. We will see a text in which different topics will be discussed and the student must understand what each paragraph says. For this last exercise, I will use the texts and printed images from my printed edition of Guía de Madrid.

This course suggests that we enter a level of English that allows you to deal with your personal life and your professional life. Furthermore, the idea is to be able to talk about the media, to function in different environments. It is also important in this course to think about eating. How nice it is to know how to order a good plate of food or go to a gym knowing how to talk to people. Here you can delve into the different greetings and means of establishing contact with Spanish.

I tailor my classes around the interests and needs of my students. With children, especially, so they are learning the language through their existing interests and this helps them stay motivated. With adults, I specialize in Business English and make sure I understand how they could immediately apply what they’ve learnt. So we start with an email, a presentation, whatever they’re working towards. I believe good teaching takes time, attention and a safe space to make mistakes :)

My teaching style is communicative, student-centered, and adaptable. I believe students learn best when they feel engaged, supported, and encouraged to actively use the language. I try to create a positive classroom atmosphere where learners can build confidence while developing their speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills. Depending on the age group and learning objectives, I incorporate interactive activities, discussions, storytelling, and creative resources to make learning meaningful and enjoyable.
