English Second Language Teacher (Native UK) with Honours Degree in Language and Linguistics

Hello! I'm Miya, a languages graduate (Spanish, French, Italian, English) and I love learning languages, so I understand first-hand how challenging it can be to learn and practise speaking a new language.

Classes can be:
- speaking only: practising getting comfortable speaking English with a native
- grammar based: doing exercises and translations
- from beginner to advanced levels of English

I have experience teaching English in language academies to people of all ages and abilities. I teach Cambridge, Trinity and EOI exams, as well as group child classes.

I am open to doing classes online (via Zoom or Skype) and we can meet at an agreed location in the city.

A laptop would be great, but not essential.

About Me

I am an energetic and fun 23-year-old from the UK. I am an English second language teacher in Valencia and have been living here for about a year. I studied languages at university and I love to learn about language and how it differs. For this reason, I love to teach others English and how it differs from their native language.

I love when my students ask me questions. Anything! It can be something grammar-specific, and if I don't know the answer, I will go and find out and get back to you with the answer!

Kids that love to learn and love to try out new things make teaching extremely worthwhile. Getting students comfortable speaking lets them improve at a much faster rate so I encourage speaking in my classes and active participation.

I teach using various methods: learning through games is always fun and lets younger students gain confidence in a second language. With adults, I prefer to use exercises based around grammar and translation. However, I teach adults that only wish to learn through speaking, and they like when I correct their mistakes as they speak.

Education

First Class (Honours) Bachelors Degree: Modern Languages and Linguistics from Newcastle University.
Spanish, French, Italian Language.
Linguistics (Philology) in English, Spanish, French

Experience / Qualifications

1 year teaching ESL in private language academies. Cambridge, Trinity, EOI exam boards.

English lessons with a college professor on sabbatical!
I'm a TESL-certified, PhD-holding college professor from Canada spending a year on sabbatical in Valencia. I love helping people improve their speaking and writing skills. I'm an expert, but I like to make my lessons as fun and engaging as possible. Lessons can be online or in-person.

Nicolás Rey
English classes to improve fluency when communicating and reading, I also prepare exams, specifically Cambridge
English and Spanish classes for foreigners, online or in person, above all I like to work on fluency when expressing oneself and in reading, but I also have experience preparing English exams, especially the Cambridge exams.

Daniel
Spanish classes for foreigners of all levels and ages.
Every day Spanish is more fashionable. Do you want to learn Spanish? Do you want to get your DELE or SIELE diploma? Do you want your child to learn Spanish from an initial level? In my classes you will be able to learn the language from a communicative and action-based approach, where the students play an active role. For this, didactic materials adapted to the CEFR will be used. If you want to have fun while learning Spanish, I wait for you in my classes for all levels and all ages. Classes online through Zoom or in person at the student's home. See you!

Berta
Spanish for foreigners of all nationalities.
Spanish for all ages and levels. Classes are adapted to the needs of each student. They can include grammar, vocabulary, set phrases, conversation, and much more! I usually make them very dynamic so that students learn quickly and effectively. I can do group classes although I prefer to do them individually so I can focus on the difficulties of each one. When a student has an advanced level (higher than B2) I like to do debates of all kinds, games adapted to age, talk and compare different countries, exchange ideas, cultures, etc. 60 minutes goes a long way! You will not get bored.

Amparo
Private primary and secondary classes adapted to your needs
I teach private classes to primary and secondary students who require extra support at home, practicing those concepts they require. I adapt to the language of the classes that need to be taught. In addition, I like to know before class what we will focus on to propose a series of exercises and address doubts well during the session.

Ainhoa
English for any field and/or English for revision.
English is, today, a very important language in various fields. Whether it's for daily life, classes, work... I can help you. In these classes, we will look for the method that best suits you and your needs, we will reinforce what you find yourself having the most difficulty in, and we will make English something appealing and easy. What are you waiting for?

Nicolás
Reinforcement classes in English and Spanish for all levels, or reinforcement classes in all subjects for the little ones.
I give private classes, mainly English or Spanish classes. But there are also several basic level subjects that I can teach for children up to 4th grade. Regarding the methodology of my classes, I like to teach based on significant content, related to the interests and needs of the students to foster interest in the subject. Therefore, I try to design activities and exercises that are governed by a context that is enjoyable and fun for the student instead of teaching from dense theory and isolated words or phrases. I like to transmit the language as a communicative need and not as an academic process. That is, teach the language for daily life, not just to fulfill a subject.

Learn English Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing with Me!
I design the lessons with the parents and the student, I make programs according to the desired needs. In my opinion, the development of the student's communication skills is more important than learning grammar, and my priority is communication. I use appropriate materials according to age and interest, and I attract the attention of the student and make him/her enjoy the lesson.
