About Me
Hi! I'm Nicolas, an English teacher with experience in personalized lessons for adults. My focus is on helping you speak with confidence and ease, no matter your current level.
My classes are practical, dynamic, and tailored to your interests—whether it’s improving your fluency for travel, preparing for an interview, or feeling more comfortable in everyday conversations.

I have experience in international education, having worked with students from different parts of the world, and I currently live in Spain. I enjoy creating a relaxed environment where you can learn without pressure and truly enjoy the process.

If you're looking for classes focused on conversation, useful vocabulary, and real-life practice, I’d be happy to help. Book a class and let’s get started!
Education
I hold a Master's degree in Marketing and Communication from ESIC Business & Marketing School (Spain) and a Bachelor's degree in International Business from Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola (Lima, Peru). I also have an advanced English certification and have completed various courses related to communication, teaching, and professional development.
Experience / Qualifications
I have experience teaching English to adults in one-on-one lessons, with a practical and communicative approach tailored to real-life situations such as interviews, remote work, presentations, and travel. My classes focus on improving fluency, expanding vocabulary, and building speaking confidence.

In addition to my teaching experience, I’ve worked in Human Resources as a recruiter for international companies. This has given me a strong understanding of professional English and the language used in workplace contexts—especially in interviews, recruitment processes, and business communication. This background allows me to help students effectively prepare for real-world professional settings.

I’ve also worked on international education programs, developing intercultural communication skills and supporting learners of different levels and nationalities. Thanks to my academic background and professional experience, I offer structured, engaging, and results-oriented lessons.

Claudia
Hello!

I am Claudia and for almost 10 years I have dedicated myself to learning and teaching languages traveling through Europe. In addition to being a language coach, I am a trainer of intercultural and cross-cultural communication

If you haven't found out yet, communication is my life!

Thanks to my travels and my professional experience, I have understood that learning a language means first of all understanding its contexts of use and the society around it. For this reason, I use cultural content as stimuli to work on the linguistic and communicative skills of my students. In fact, my students become consumers of culture, music, current affairs, cinema, series, shorts and everything that can help them experience the realities of different languages.

I speak five languages, two of which I have learned on a self-taught basis. Also, with a BA in Languages and a MA in Linguistics, I am a specialist in language, mental management and planning. I consider learning a language as a project, because it will always be connected to another larger / wider project. Maybe to move to another country or prepare for a job promotion ...

My students are students, individuals, company employees and expatriates who need to develop a methodology to learn languages effectively.

The services I offer are different / diverse: individual or group coaching, training for companies, preparation of talks and meetings, fluency training, and other linguistic services such as proofreading and writing in Italian, French and English.

The first step to understand what type of service you need is to contact me to arrange a first interview.

What will happen in said interview?

I will ask you several questions that will help me to make an analysis of your linguistic profile, evaluate your level and establish your learning objectives. On the same occasion, I will explain my methodology and the tools that we will use at work. We will also discuss the type of coaching (online or face-to-face), the schedules, the prices, and the possible offers.
After the first interview, you will receive a report with a personalized pedagogical proposal and a budget.

It doesn't matter where you live, I'll wait for you in Barcelona or online

So what, do you sign up?

The goal is to be able to hold a conversation, express yourself spontaneously and practice the basics. Through talking about your interest we can expand your vocabulary. However you will be learning the fixed structures, verbs and tenses and pronunciation.

The first thing I do is to identify what stage of learning the learner is in and, from there, it provides me with the application of materials necessary to implement a teaching programme. The methodology is adapted to the intended language level, the learning objectives, the age of the learner, the language needs and difficulties. I teach languages in a gradual way, as clearly as possible and making the student feel comfortable, without making him/her feel afraid or embarrassed. I attach as much importance to the theoretical explanation as to the application of theory, and I require my students to be proactive (interactive and participative). When I teach languages, I teach understanding, speaking, reading and writing. Specifically, I teach language as a whole: I teach terminology, semantics (the meaning of morphemes and words and their combinations) and the branches of grammar: morphology (the form and structure of words), sentence syntax (the way words are combined) and word prosody (pronunciation).
I teach languages by applying dynamic teaching strategies, using activities that involve the learner, such as exercises, production of written and verbal speeches, games, staging real-life situations, dialogues, debates, reading, listening to the media, etc.
The teaching materials I use are effective and meet the following criteria: motivating, attractive, up-to-date (current, relevant topics), clear, appropriate (approachable), inclusive (various possibilities for interaction and different points of view), multimodal (varied), participatory, flexible (adaptable) and creative (original).

In this series of lessons we focus on conversations. Often the most difficult step is from theoretical knowledge to practice. Do you suddenly start to hesitate in a conversation whether you should use 'perfecto' or 'imperfecto' when you want to talk about that trip last summer? Was it 'por' or 'para' as a preposition?

Depending on your interests, we start the lesson by reading a customized text or discussing a photo. That text or photo will then serve as a starting point for the conversation.
