English & Spanish Lessons. Conversational. Writing.
From 26 C$ /h
For kids: I love teaching kids through songs, body movement, visual aids, and realia students have at home and at hand. Kids really love it! It is engaging, fun, and more memorable. I may ask them to point at something, to look for something, or to label things. By doing so, I tried to cater to different learning styles. Time flies when students are motivated, and take real part on there own learning :)
For adults: whether it is a speaking lesson, a grammar lesson, or a slang one I would always explain a concept through different examples. You are going to discover the rule, the use, and the most appropriate form. I would help you expand your vocabulary through different expressions, collocations - always set in a context - so that learning would be more meaningful. Phonetics? Of course! If we don't know how to pronounce a word, we can't remember it, thus we can't use it!

About Me
My name is Pilar. I’m Argentinian and Italian. Doing yoga is one of the many activities - together with cooking, painting, decorating, and reflexive writing - I absolutely adore! I used to end all stress out at the end of a very long day and couldn't sleep tight. Yoga entirely transform my life. Along with it, I give guided meditation a go. There's nothing like starting the day with a motivational and positive attitude. I'm the kind of person that strongly believes that living in the here and now it's key to fully live, my motto is live there here and now because that's the only thing we have!
Education
I have a bachelor’s degree in English Teaching as well as I'm TEFL certified at International TEFL Academy. In addition, I'm doing a 30 hour post training course on Teaching English to Young Learners also at International TEFL Academy.
As regards Spanish, I'm currently doing a postgraduate course of studies of Spanish as a Second Language Teaching - my native language. I've been teaching English for more than 8 years offline and I've been teaching English and Spanish online for 8 months now! I teach English and Spanish at a Japanese company, and I also tutor two North American girls in Spanish.

Experience / Qualifications
My first experience teaching English was at primary school. Handling a group of 30 kids was an enormous challenge for me. I really liked it though. I love kids! I remembered that I was awarded the kindest teacher prize. Then, I taught mostly teens, and adults. Currently, I teach all ages English & Spanish. I always try to put myself in my student's shoes. I was a student too - still I am.
Then, I also taught at different English language institutes. I was in charge of Intermediate and upper-intermediate levels. I really felt that teaching adults was learning too. I learned so many things from their life experiences. This was also an invaluable experience. Most of all, however, I adore and enjoy teaching kids.
I’ve been teaching English and Spanish online for eight months and I am on top of the world. I never ever imagine that I would love teaching online. Being able to teach students from another culture which is radically different from my culture is incredible.
