About Me

My name is Pat and I have always enjoyed teaching and poured my talents into everything I have created: music, novels, activities.I am an EFL, ESL, SFL and SSL teacher, hold a master degree in Spanish, from Jaén university, Spain. I graduated from Universidad del Salvador, Argentina, where I went through a very a rigorous academic process which was finally developed into what I like the best: teaching and creating engaging, captivating material to learn languages.

One of my major achievements are my contributions to the Spanish materials market: I have become a popular novelist and songs composer. Some of these books have been developed into movies, like Pobre Ana bailó tango ; I was the executive producer of the movie.Additionally, I have co-authored several educational materials like the series written by Carol Gaab and has edited other novels written by Blaine Ray and Karen Rowan.

I have traveled all the way to US to find out about a cutting edge methodology called TPRS in order to maximize my students acquisition-learning process. . This is how I started writing TPRS novels, a new concept to be coined by the TPRS world. A TPRS novelist is focused on writing captivating, engaging, easily comprehensive readings that use high frequency words and which are easily understood by students in their first attempts at reading foreign language readers.
I have been teaching Chinese, Russian and Korean students for the last eight years

I have been teaching online for the last 8 years and I find this style fascinating.This is one of the reasons I am writing to you. I would be very happy to work with you, in case of an opening
