As a Spanish teacher for foreigners, my primary goal is to create a dynamic and accessible learning environment where each student can progress at their own pace and develop the linguistic skills needed to communicate effectively and confidently in Spanish.
Course Approach:
Practical communication: From day one, I focus on providing students with the tools necessary to navigate everyday situations. This includes learning greetings, introductions, asking for directions, shopping, talking about likes and daily routines.
Applied grammar: Grammar teaching is contextual, meaning I don't just explain rules but teach students how to use them correctly in real-life situations. We start with basic structures at lower levels and progress to more complex tenses such as the subjunctive and verb periphrasis at higher levels.
Vocabulary expansion: I offer a thematic and functional approach to vocabulary, covering areas like family, work, travel, health, and leisure, ensuring that students can communicate fluently in a wide variety of contexts.
Development of the four language skills: Classes focus on listening comprehension, speaking, reading, and writing in an integrated way. This is achieved through activities such as debates, text writing, audio and video comprehension, and role-playing.
Cultural interaction: A cultural approach is encouraged in the classes, where students not only learn the language but also customs, idiomatic expressions, and regional variations of Spanish. This helps them understand cultural differences and communicate more authentically.
Constant practice and feedback: I provide ongoing feedback, correcting mistakes and guiding students toward more precise communication. Additionally, I incorporate practical tasks where students are faced with real-life situations (such as making presentations or writing formal emails) to apply what they've learned effectively.
My commitment is to support each student in their learning process, creating a safe and stimulating environment where they feel comfortable and motivated to advance in their mastery of Spanish.
