Erika
Native Spanish teacher possibility to travel in Europe
Teaching is my passion, and as a native speaker, I've had the pleasure of connecting with students worldwide, starting from my experiences in the Czech Republic. We can delve into the intricacies of communication, focusing on what matters to you. I prepare students for tests like DELE and SIELE, tailoring my approach to your unique goals—whether it's acing an exam, exploring the world, or simply diving into language and culture. My lessons take a casual twist—we might stroll around, grab a coffee or tea, and make learning an enjoyable experience. The best part for me is when students express gratitude for our time together. I believe language is more than just words, and I look forward to sharing my perspective with you. Can't wait to meet you and start this language journey together!

Pedro Eduardo
General English A1-A2 for teenagers, adults and seniors
Levels A1-A2 of English are the most important of all levels, since as a student you must know and master basic vocabulary and grammar that will help you understand the formation of simple sentences from academic and non-academic texts. You will learn to communicate in English using everyday vocabulary and expressions, from saying hello, talking about your favorite hobbies, asking for help, giving directions to places, to talking about your experiences, your trips, among others.

Marquez
English - Grammar, Conversation and Cambridge Exam Prep
My style of teaching focuses on conversations based on everyday situations. I think that conversation, whether with beginners or with more advanced levels, is a very effective way of facing grammatical and pronunciation challenges. Each class is personalised to the needs and interests of the students. Along with grammar and conversation classes, I prepare students for official Cambridge exams. These classes are focused on understanding the format of the exam, the requirements and tips for passing each section.

Irene
Certified Spanish teacher with 10 years of experience. English, French, German and Russian spoken
Already done some Spanish but want to improve? Got some grammar issues? Want to work on your communication? Preparing for an exam? You always wanted to learn Spanish and have decided that the time might be just now? I can help you! My name is Irene. I come from Guadalajara, a town close to Madrid, but live in beautiful Barcelona. I understood very early that I like not only learning but also teaching languages and studied my Masters of Linguistics Applied to Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language. I have lived in France, India, Germany and Russia teaching Spanish. During these 15 years of teaching, I learnt a lot about different methods, people and logics. I use a variety of resources (textbooks, articles, small videos, audios...) providing examples, exercises and homework so that what is to be learnt is doable. I adapt my classes to what students want and need so they make the most of their time and money. I think it is very important for students to feel comfortable and safe. It is also essential that what we do and talk about in class makes sense and is relevant for you. It is your goal and personal style of learning what will define our classes. I also speak English, French, German and Russian. I can explain in the student′ s mother tongue if necessary although my goal will be to speak Spanish from the very beginning with affordable exercises adapted to your level. I love teaching and learning new languages because they bring us closer.

Julia
Learn to speak Catalan through conversation with native speaker.
Learn Catalan through conversation. If you want to improve your communication skills, I am here to help you. (Skype/Zoom available) I moved to the US a few years ago for professional reasons, it was very difficult to apply everything I had learned in traditional English schools to my everyday life. I quickly realized that the system that schools often use does not reflect the human learning process. As children, we first learn a few words and over time we develop language skills through mistakes and a fearless approach to the language. It is only later, at school, that our communication skills are refined. So why should we memorize the correct tenses and sentence constructions right from the start if we can not express ourselves yet? When we learn a new language, we often spend a lot of time constructing the perfect sentence in our head instead of speaking it.

Languages What a Passion. Language class: ITALIAN, SPANISH, PORTUGUESE, ENGLISH, FRENCH, GERMAN. We learn by having fun!
ENGLISH Do you want to learn Spanish? Do you want to improve your English? Do you dream of learning Italian? Have French and Portuguese always intrigued you? Does the German seem an insurmountable obstacle? Then you're in the right place! I offer lessons in each of the aforementioned languages to anyone who wishes to learn them: face-to-face (Barcelona), or online. Classes will be customized to what you want: Do you want to enrich your vocabulary? Then we will focus on conversation and dialogue. Do you want to focus on grammar, spelling, tenses and verbs? Then the class will be more technical and based on a deeper knowledge of the dynamics of the language. In short, each lesson will be adapted to your needs and what are your goals and objectives in relation to what you want to learn of a particular language. So what are you waiting for? Italian, Spanish, English, Portuguese, French and German await you! Thank you!

Jed
Accent Training for Public Speaking, Presentation and/or Conversation for Students and Professionals. (Intermediate English required)
Hey there! I'm Jed, an experienced Interior Designer and overall creative professional. I have about 4 years of professional experience teaching students and training professionals when I was living in Thailand from 2017 to 2021. For this course, I use a proven program that focuses on the vocal aspect of speaking English. You will learn the phonetics of different letter combinations, discussed with detail what to do with your mouth, tongue and breathing to be able to speak more clearly. Why does this work? Our tongues are muscles! And for non-native English speakers, we need to understand and practice to make proper sounds to speak English more clearly. Please note, I will not teach grammar. The goal of this class is not to sound like a native speaking American or British, the goal is to speak English clearly with a neutral accent easily understandable by anybody. What makes this course helpful to you as a student or a professional? Confidence! Being able to converse, speak and present in your university or professional presentations. Previous students taught were native speakers of Chinese, Thai, Filipino, Arabic, Spanish and Italian. Additional info about me: I am born and raised in the Philippines, lived in the US for 2 years, studied in Canada for 4 years, lived and worked in Thailand for 4 years and living in Barcelona, Spain for 2 years now! I went to an English speaking school my whole life and I consider myself in a native or bilingual level of English. Why I do this: I am heart and soul a designer, but teaching is a very important part of my life, and I truly enjoy sharing experiences with people!
