About Me

Translated by Google. Click to view original.
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. (That was two years and a half ago, at the Academy English Studio where I have been an English teacher for more than two years, untill 13th March, when the lady in charge said literally that she would pass my 59 students to another teacher because I had no Internet at home, as I had recently moved to another town and had not had time to set the Internet, and nobody could have possibly known about that horrible and destructive confinement). More than 20 years teaching and learning with my students. Online classes. Spanish and Catalan teacher, too.

Learn the language with a local teacher who will adapt to your needs! :)
I am a multilingual translator who has been working as a language teacher for 4 years now. As my parents are Spanish (Catalan) and French, I am native in the three languages. I have also studied abroad, so I have a C2 level in English (with the Proficiency Certificate). Hence, I also prepare students for all the Cambridge English exams (First Certificate-B2, Advanced-C1 and Proficiency-C2).

School review, I help you with your homework and prepare for exams, raise your level in a short time
Hello, my name is Ona and I am 20 years old. Currently, I am studying primary education. Since I was little I have been clear that I wanted to dedicate myself to this. I have completed secondary school and high school, with an average of 9 and 8 respectively. I have experience working with children, I like to teach new ways of learning and studying, as well as how to organize. I can help them in all subjects, preparing for exams, doing homework and getting organized. I do online classes, before class I ask the student to send me what they want to work on so I can prepare it. This way I can make the class more productive and personalized, also offering extra content that I prepare. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to write to me

Noemi
Tuition of Catalan; discovery of language and culture.
- Currently a student in a Master's degree in Public Administration, I graduated from a double license in law/LEA (applied foreign languages) and a year of hypokhâgne (preparatory class for the Grandes Ecoles). I therefore think I have the necessary resources to best help young students at the college/high school level to reinforce their learning and increase their results. - In addition to my training, given that I am trilingual (Spanish, French and Catalan) and that I am of Catalan origin, this course is mainly aimed at learning the language (written and oral) and its culture; history, links to current events, etc. - These courses can therefore be used both for students curious to know more about this identity and for those who already have some basics. - My way of teaching (homework, interventions, type of exercises...) will adapt according to the expectations and needs of the student.

Marc
