About Me

With hands-on experience in English language instruction, cultural orientation, and administrative support, I bring a well-rounded skill set and a deep passion for language education that aligns with your language learning mission and values.

In my recent role, I designed ESL lesson plans and curricula tailored to newly arrived clients and students, emphasizing essential language skills, job readiness, and cultural integration. I played a key role in both in-person and online student enrollment and facilitated ESOL classes to provide individualized needs-based instruction.

Beyond the classroom, I ensured the smooth operation of administrative processes by managing student records, conducting data entry, and coordinating academic advising appointments. I also supported graduate school application processes by handling confidential materials, organizing letters of recommendation, and facilitating communication between students and their committees.

My instructional responsibilities extended to leading micro-teaching sessions both online and in person for undergraduate students and professors. These sessions showcased my ability to implement effective teaching strategies, develop targeted lesson plans, and create instructional materials for diverse classroom environments.

To me, ESL/EFL instruction is about building bridges across cultures and empowering learners with practical, confident communication skills. I strive to foster intercultural competence while ensuring each learner progresses at their own pace through a responsive and inclusive approach. I’m also committed to continuous professional development through workshops, mentorships, and up-to-date instructional practices.

High School Math can be confusing for students. Often there is not enough time in school to repeat the content and practice enough, for the students to gain confidence and a routine in solving mathematical problems. With my help and guidance, any confusion will be cleared and we will practice problem solving until you are confident and understand the material.

The lessons will be tailored to your needs and their structure depends highly on you: usually it is a mixture of repeating the content, solving exercises together, summarising important concepts and talking about exercises you tried yourself at home. The topics, content, pace and methods of learning will be adjusted to your needs, ensuring that you get the most out of my lessons. Besides the lessons, you will get "homework" to work on to strengthen your skills and independent working.

Topics include, but are not limited to:
-Linear Algebra
-Calculus
-Trigonometry
-Geometry
-Set Theory
-Analysis

If you have another topic in mind that you really need help with, just send me a message!

Whether you need someone that explains the concepts to you or just someone to practice exercises with - I am sure I can help you. You have an exam soon and want to review the main topics? No problem! You have a very specific problem, question or topic that you need help with? I'm here to answer any questions! You need help with preparing for your A-levels/High School diploma? Don't fret, I will guide and prepare you!

The most important part of my lessons is, however, to ensure a safe and comfortable environment - I have no issue with explaining the same concept over and over again until I am convinced that you have understood it. It is important to me that you feel comfortable in asking any questions - I want to show you, that Math is more than a subject and that it can be fun!

I am a native Spanish speaker and a general language enthusiast. In addition to Spanish, I speak German and English. I am 100% confident that I will successfully teach you Spanish (while having fun and relaxing)!

I've been teaching spanish for 15 years. I am 41 years old, graduated with honors from the University of Salamanca. My main goal in teaching is to make students feel relaxed and comfortable while studying.

Do you already know Spanish? No problem! Rather than building the basics, we can design courses to suit your personal needs and preferences. We can write essays together, you can give presentations on topics that interest you or that I present to you, we can discuss current events, engage in debates, you can write summaries of newspaper articles, or we can delve into advanced grammar. Whatever you enjoy and need, we can do it together.

All my courses combine speaking, listening and grammar practice in interaction with me. Unless you are a very advanced student, we work with learning materials created by some of the best language learning publishers in Germany. These materials serve as a common thread for our course, introducing new words, grammar and exercises at a good pace and in an interesting way, keeping you engaged and motivated. I also show you German food, music and places. In addition, I will introduce you to the best technological tools (homepages and applications) to boost your language learning and take it to the next level.

Another important factor for me is the personal connection. We usually start our lessons with how the weekend or previous weekdays were like.

Contact me now to arrange a first lesson in which we can get to know each other so that I can learn more about you, your needs and desires and thus design the optimal course for you.
