About Me

italki teacher since Jul 16, 2018

I am very passionate about helping others to be able to communicate in the native language of others without requiring the aid of an interpreter. Over several years,, as I've traveled throughout 13 different countries, I've taught language courses to many. I've taught English to native Spanish & Portuguese speakers. I've also helped native English & Portuguese students to become fluent in Spanish. I understand the difficulties & frustrations that occur as one attempts to learn a new language. For this reason, I am very patient & compassionate towards my students. I teach in a very practical & enjoyable way that enables the student to quickly begin to apply what has been learned.

Me as a Teacher

Over a period of 7 years, I have lived in Guatemala, Honduras and Brazil and interacted daily with the people in their native tongues of either Spanish or Portuguese. I have also gone into 9 other Latin American countries and worked with the people. For many years, I have served as an interpreter between the three languages. I read and write in Spanish and Portuguese with great ease. My goal is to get you quickly speaking in your new language, Practice is most important in achieving foreign language fluency. Through our work together, you will become well understood by any native speaker of the language you are learning. Your oral comprehension will also improve greatly..

My lessons & teaching style

I emphasize the development of correct pronunciation so that you will be well understood as you speak. My goal is to bring you as close as possible to having an authentic sounding accent. You will quickly gain the ability & confidence to converse with native speakers. You'll also learn many common idioms needed for successful communication.. I am looking for students who are serious about learning a new language & who have a strong reason as their motivation. Whether you are at the beginner, intermediate or advanced level, you CAN become fluent in your language if you possess two essential qualities: 1. A hunger to learn; 2. A willingness to work hard & do all that is necessary.. .
