Qualified English Tutor with level 5 TEFL qualification

I have a level 5 TEFL qualification and have been practicing teaching lessons in various ways and through various methods. I find the best way to teach a new concept in English is to make the lessons engaging through primarily conversing in English and practicing grammar and pronunciation in a more interesting way, through games, role plays, listening activities and so on. I would therefore aim to make the lessons interesting and targeted at specific parts of the English language that students would like to work on.

About Me

I graduated from University with a 2.1 degree in Anthropology and Spanish, with a first honours. I love reading and creative writing and find that enjoying the company of a good book or writing about something you are interested in is a great way to learn or improve a new language! I have worked with children for the last 4 years and absolutely love spending time playing and learning with young children. I think that if learning is made fun it is more easily absorbed as there is a higher level of engagement between the teacher and the student. I have had experience in one on one tutoring for English and Anthropology throughout my time at University and would love to use the skills that i have learnt throughout my degree to help people improve their English vocabulary in an interesting way. As i have recently moved to Spain from London and have a beginner's level of Spanish, I think it would be beneficial for English students to converse primarily in English to constantly be using the skills they are learning. Thank you for reading. Sophie

Xavier
English teacher. All levels and ages. Like teaching while learning.
Experiència de més de 20 anys donant classes d'anglès i català a grups reduïts d'ESO i Batxillerat i classes de repàs en el sector de les Humanitats. Doy clases de inglés desde hace muchos años. He impartido a grupos reducidos y a particulares de repaso (ESO y Bachillerato). Me desplazo. Busco estabilidad y continuidad para todo el curso. Enseñar es mi vocación. Por las mañanas trabajo en una empresa de telemárketing en BCN en un ambiente multicultural donde el inglés es nuestra lengua vehicular y a partir de las 16h tengo disponibilidad. Actualmente soy profesor de inglés en la Academia English Studio, en Cornellà de Llobregat en turno de tardes. Todos los niveles y edades. Barajo la posibilidad de dedicarme a la docencia también en horario de mañana, siempre y cuando la oferta para este horario fuera de mi interés. En el turno de tarde soy autónomo. Busco estabilidad y continuidad en Academia o similar para todo el curso y en verano. My name is Xavier. I was born in Barcelona... a long time ago. I grow up in this town, but now I live a bit far from here. I studied at the University of Barcelona and in Huddersfield (near Shefield, Halifax, Leeds, Manchester, Liverpool,...not very far from York: quite nice places and better people), and I've been teaching Catalan, Spanish, Phillsofy, History and English for a long time...since I was 16. What happened? Very short, I promise: I was walking down the street two years ago, from just opposite this private school, and I thought myself: well, you might enter this place and see. I like English language very much... and the UK,... but I don' t have a poster of the Queen on my bedroom's wall. It was a sort of a blind date. And there she was: her smile, her diligence, effectiveness. Eva listened to me. And after two weeks she was texting me for a class. Please, Xavier, can you cover for some classes? And here I am. English Studio, Academy of English in Barcelona, where I used to be a teacher until Covid 19 knocked at the door of our lives, and teachers and students had to be at home. Professional Objective: English teacher. Morning shift: Professional experience More than 15 years in several Contact Centers as an Agent or as a Team Leader or Supervisor. Companies: Teletech, Telefono Permanente, MST, Teleperformance and Promofon.

And last but not least, every day monitoring work, keeping an eye on the activity of premium learners, ensuring the team was taking the necessary proactive action, either by phone or email. I had to support very often other colleagues in accordance with business needs and to share ideas to improve business practices and the quality of the service. More than 20 years as an English teacher. Also, Spanish, Catalan an Humanities subjects. Qualifications: Universitat Central de Barcelona, Law Studies. Fluent English and intermediate level of French. Native level of Catalan and Spanish

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.

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.

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!

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.

I can also help with exam preparation (i.e., English proficiency exams), help with improving grades in academic courses, or improvement for a job or general desire.

Take your English or German to the next level with me!
"One language sets you in a corridor for life. Two languages open every door along the way." I am an absolute language enthusiast, who is as well lucky to pursue her greatest hobby at the university - I study to become a teacher of both English and German. I specialize in teaching mostly through conversation, during which I as well explain the main principles of grammar. Why so? I do not want my students to be overwhelmed by grammar and only get a minor option to speak and use what they just learned. This way of teaching as well allows me (and my students) to get to know each other better, which I find important. I prefer eye to eye lessons to the ones through Skype, as I believe that it makes a great difference when you know your language partner in person, not only through a laptop screen. Do not hesitate to contact me, I am looking forward to meeting 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!

Ariadna
English classes, school support and Spanish classes
Hello! My name is Ariadna, and I am excited to apply for the position of English teacher. I am a close, responsible and empathetic person, and I consider these qualities to be essential to providing quality education to my students. I believe in the importance of creating a positive and motivating learning environment where students feel safe to express themselves and make mistakes, as I consider error to be an opportunity for growth and improvement. My focus on empathy allows me to understand the individual needs of my students and adapt my teaching to meet those specific needs. I believe that each student is unique and deserves personalized attention to reach their full potential in learning the English language.

ENGLISH AND GERMAN CLASSES FOR WRITING AND SPEAKING - ALL AGES/ALL LEVELS
Growing up bilingual in German and English was as challenging as it was exciting and an experience that inspired my love for languages. Now I would love to share my knowledge on effortlessly mastering the ins and outs of these two infamous languages with you! The lessons are hands-on, easily understandable and true-to-life, so you can go and use what you've learned right away. Moreover, I like to customise the lessons to the topics and hobbies that interest you so that we can build progress on familiar sole, have you make better connections to the language and have an overall better learning experience. If it works with your schedule, I would also strongly recommend that we make homework a part of your class structure. I am confident we can use whatever foundation and experiences you have to help you meet your language goals - whether you just want to smooth out the kinks or start from the very beginning. You and I can figure this out together!
