About Me
italki teacher since Feb 2, 2021Me as a Teacher
I'm a full time language tutor. I started teaching Spanish in 2014 and since then I have taught people from many different countries and of all ages. I love the fact that learning a language allows us to take part in the culture/s that have it at their centre. and I truly enjoy helping people who are interested in learning my native language.
I feel comfortable teaching teenagers as well as adults of all ages, and do my best to help you stay on track and motivated. As you may already know, motivation is the secret ingredient that will help you succeed in your language learning experience. I'm also an English language teacher so we can have English as a back up. My lessons & teaching style
I'm quite relaxed in terms of tutor-student relationship. I don't like being 'the one that knows everything and is always right' and stay away from the masterclass format. You know, the 'I speak and you nod' format. I like to be able to provide you with clear explanations and guidance, but I want you to get involved!
I love Powerpoint presentations and I normally use English as the 'base language' for explanations and to go further into vocabulary items, but I make the point of getting you to speak Spanish as soon as possible.
Also worth mentioning, when you sign up for our classes, I'll send you a compressed folder with resources you'll probably find quite useful.My teaching material

Spanish Teaching Training Course - International House Buenos Aires - 2013I made this training course in one of Buenos Aires' best language schools. It was designed to give ELE teachers a comprehensive background into language teaching. We got practice straight away with foreign students and the experience was both valuable and useful in terms of the knowledge they shared and advice and suggestions given.

English TeacherFormerly a student in my school days, I've been an English teacher at Anglo since 2014. My mother owns the Language School and I grew up surrounded by English language. I have regular courses of students aged 9-18 and I tutor the older ones to sit for FCE exams.
I also teach adults, tailoring my classes to fit their needs. I have a great time switching to my "English self" for a few hour every day
2014 - 2021
Spanish TeacherI decided I wanted to teach Spanish after living for 6 months in Brazil. While living there I had the chance of teaching Spanish to hotel staff and felt it was exactly what I wanted to do wherever I went. We've had students coming to study, but most of all, over the Internet.

I absolutely love Matías' teaching style; flexible, supportive and with a great sense of humour. Even when I was not as prepared for the class as I should have been, I really got a lot out of it.

Verbs, clocks, pastries, wolves, volcanos and hospitals, and yet it all made sense. I absolutely love these classes; already looking forward to the next one!
