About Me

Hello! My name is Elise and I currently live in Madrid in Spain. I am a lover of modern languages and have a degree in French and Spanish. As part of this, I spent my year abroad split between Geneva, Switzerland & Zaragoza, Spain. I am a very fun and enthusiastic teacher and excited to return to Spain as a qualified English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teacher later this year.

My previous experience includes being an Au pair teaching English to two boys in Manresa, Spain, a Teaching Assistant for Year 10 & Year 13 as well as an Academic Peer Mentor. Last year I received my CELTA from International House in London where I learnt how to entwine the communicative approach into my everyday teaching. I look forward to designing dynamic lessons that will help to boost my student’s confidence and make learning English an enjoyable experience.

Flexible teaching around the student's desires. I am from California with a Bachelor of Science and a Masters in Education.

I can teach a mix of online and in person as I travel out of Madrid often for work.

I will teach what you want to learn in an interactive/conversational way. I am well versed to teach English, Math, and Science topics on many levels. Additionally, for English lessons, I will focus on some pronunciation skills to have you sounding like a native speaker in no time!

Hi,
My name is Santiago and I am offering individual and personalized virtual English classes to improve both your oral and written communication. The main focus of my classes is on developing English language communication in a fluid and structured way, whether to prepare for international exams, including the TOEFL and the FCE, or to be able to communicate adequately in the professional field, or to reinforce and maintain prior knowledge of this language.
I have a degree, graduated from Florida Gulf Coast University in the USA. Having learned English since I was a child at the Ivy Thomas Memorial School and lived for a year and a half in Thailand, followed by 4 years in the USA, I acquired great knowledge and fluency in the English language.
In Thailand I spent a year and a half studying communication arts and this helped me prepare for my studies in the US I had several communication classes, learning techniques on how to speak better using not only our words, but also our body to help us speak in a way more natural, calm and without getting nervous if we get stuck or forget what we wanted to say. During my career in the US I was constantly writing essays for my classes, in addition to having to present projects in front of my teachers and classmates. At the same time, I was working at university and after graduating I worked for a year, mainly having long conversations on the phone with people from all over the country.
Nowadays the ability to communicate in English is essential and I will prepare you so that you can meet your objectives. It could be studying abroad, going to live in an English-speaking country, improving communication in the professional field or practicing so as not to lose the level previously acquired.
If what you are looking for is to improve your knowledge of the English language, I am going to help you. My methodology is simple. Each person is different and I adapt the content of my classes to the needs and interests of my students. We all learn in different ways and at different times, that is why I design my classes individually.

Languages, such as English or German, open many doors, both in your professional and personal life. Learning another language will help you experience other cultures and new places from a different perspective, giving you an advantage in your professional life.

With me, you can learn from scratch, improve your theoretical and practical knowledge, or perfect your conversational skills in another language. Classes are tailored to each student's level, goals, and preferences to facilitate learning.

I tailor my classes to each student according to their age, level, and learning style. With younger students, I often use games, dynamics, and memory techniques to help them learn the language in a fun way. For older students, I focus on their specific difficulties, working with practical exercises and clear examples that facilitate understanding.

I'm passionate about teaching languages, especially English, because I know how useful it can be and how easy it is to learn with the right motivation. If my student needs an extra push, I strive to motivate them and make them enjoy learning, as I believe that without interest, it's very difficult to progress.

When a student starts from scratch, I usually begin with basic vocabulary and expressions so that they gradually gain a solid foundation and understand the language more easily.
I consider myself a very adaptable person, able to adjust the pace and focus of the class to the needs of each student, so that learning English is an enjoyable, useful, and motivating experience.

I primarily focus the classes on perfecting English as a language in which the priority is to be able to communicate effectively, structuring conversations correctly, and developing with increasing fluency, with error correction on a case-by-case basis or at the end of the classes.
