About Me
italki teacher since Sep 19, 2019
Hi,
My name is Carlota Casaus Díaz. I am a 30-year-old language teacher from Spain. I love the culture, art and literature. I'm focusing on advance levels and my goal is to help you to speak like a native Spanish speaker. That´s the reason why I develop an original way of teaching Spanish. Just five classes per day so I could promise you full attention in our class. My classes are really well prepared and thought for taking you to another level in your Spanish skills.
Me as a Teacher
I´m a Spanish teacher specialize in advance speakers. I´m certificated as Spanish teacher by the Cervantes Institute and as Official Examiner of the level C1- C2 DELE Exam´s.
I have a particular style as I teach Spanish through newspapers, literature, ted talks and other original resources. I also specialize in a specific way of teaching grammar: cognitive grammar. With that course, I teach you to think like a native speaker.
I just work with 10 students each time (maximum of 5 class per day) so I ensure that I have the energy needed to fulfil its expectations.
My lessons & teaching style
As I explain before I worked with real text, as newspaper, magazines, or videos about the political and cultural Spanish framework.
Moreover I have an special programme of cognitive grammar that is going to show you how to use Spanish verbs in a natural way. The secret is not "talk as an Spanish" is more "think as an Spanish"

Carlota is an amazing teacher. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with her. Her teaching style is precise and engaging using a plethora of resources to help me acquire a more profound understanding for the Spanish language through rigorous examination thereby better understanding the more abstract parts of language. It also helps that she is an absolute delight to spend an hour talking to! Her personality is warm, and she has a special charm about her that makes you feel comfortable in class. I highly recommend Carlota to anyone, but especially to those students with an intermediate level wanting to dive deeper into the language.

Carlota is just the greatest! We watched and read some videos and articles that were super interesting, and our conversations about them were really fun. Then we started on some exercises and vocabulary building and like always we were laughing and having a blast the whole time. I learned a whole lot of Spanish tonight. You're not just a great teacher, you're a great friend, and I'm super lucky to have found you on italki!!

Carlota is an excellent teacher. She breaks down the grammar behind the language to help you prevent making the same mistake again. She is also very patient with me as I try to 'think in Spanish' and it comes out all messy. I highly recommend her classes!

Después de haber tomado algunas classes del programa « Think and speak like a native speaker » debo admitir que este programa es realmente una mina de oro, y que nunca hubiera imaginado poder entender las distintas matices de la gramática española de esta forma con tal claridad. Carlota es muy competente para explicar las diferentes reglas. Ahora soy capaz expresar lo que quiero decir de una forma precisa y adecuada. No sólo entiendo porque un nativo utilizaría un tiempo verbal específico mas que otro sino también puedo reutilizarlo de manera natural como un nativo lo hubiera hecho.
Recomendaría este curso a toda las personas que desean habar y pensar como un nativo! Gracias por todo Carlota y por tu profesionalismo!
