I would like to improve my Spanish, I and think I could help you learn English in the process. This can be a one-for-one exchange of classes. You and I would both understand that if, at any point, we might feel the class is not what we expected, then we can walk away - no problems.
I have attempted several Spanish classes, and honestly, the only thing I don ́t feel is effective is when the Teacher simply reads me (or has me read) lessons from a book for an hour. I teach through practical online activities that are matched to your personal skill level. I design each lesson for each student individually.

About Me
Let's have fun! I believe education should be driven by curiosity, not scores. It's the teacher who creates the atmosphere where curiosity is allowed to develop, which leads to learning. It should be an enjoyable experience the student will want to repeat. That is much easier said than done. It takes many years of skillful practice for a teacher to develop the talents needed to identify student weaknesses and employ strategies that address those weak areas using methodologies that inspire the individual student to learn. Pushing through worksheets and endless, meaningless math problems in order to get a high score does not promote learning, it's an easy way we can get higher test scores at the expense of learning. Developing the stamina needed to work through a single, complex problem that is meaningful to the student, requires the use of targeted skills and demands the cooperative efforts of others holds many advantages over "death by worksheet" methodologies. The teacher's job is to create, employ, monitor, adjust as needed and follow up on meaningful lessons that inspire students to learn. Grading papers is simply not enough. Once the student is motivated to learn, the test scores will reflect the advanced skills and higher-order thinking capabilities of the student who now loves learning. The test scores cannot be ignored, but they are not the goal, they help identify how well we have met the goal, both teacher and student.
