Hispanic and Latin American literature - Learn to read in Spanish

Àpd 24 € /h

To read is to think. When you learn how to read in a foreign language, you are also learning how to think in a said language without the need to translate every word. This means that reading helps you become more fluent and less literal. Besides that, there is so much literature to be found in the Spanish language! there are 21 countries full of diversity, culture, and tradition. There is a lot to find, learn and enjoy in Hispanic and Latin American literature.
I graduated from Letters -or Literature- in the Universidad Central de Venezuela, so this is my specialty, and I have so many beautiful and fun books to share with you!
This class works as some sort of reading and conversational club:
-I will send you a variety of books -that suit your taste- for you to read at home, then I will guide you through the reading I made as a native speaker and an avid reader.
-We will share points of view, practicing oral Spanish as well.
-I will help you improve your vocabulary by focusing on the words we read.
-You will learn new idioms and expressions, as well as dialectal and social differences between our people.
-You get to solve any of the doubts you've had while reading in Spanish.
-We will have a lot of fun with many amazing authors that are very important to our culture.

Présentation

A true class should leave you with a new experience you couldn't find anywhere else.

Words carry us, our culture and tradition, through language. They can be tasteless or tasteful, sound like poetry or a wrecked car, make us feel in Heaven or Hell. This is why we should always learn languages hand in hand with its peoples' history. This is what I care about, I want to teach Spanish in a way people can find its beauty and enjoy its diversity.

Are you a visual learner? Logical learner? Any other type of learner? My classes suit your needs and your own process of learning. You can start by taking a class, where we can figure out the course that will work better for you. Maybe you want to take the fun path, or maybe you want the methodical path that will get you through a DELE test. It is all acceptable.

I do not think everyone needs grammar to speak a new language, but I also believe one should not look at grammar with an ill heart. It should not be something to learn as hard inflexible rules, for it actually is what explains the mystery of how a language came to life and keeps breathing.

Through my Spanish classes, I want to give something that people won't forget and that it's about life itself rather than just empty information. I can talk endlessly about literature, art, films, words, etc. And it's always ok to not say things correctly, I understand we are all always learning and will never judge, only teach how to say it better.

I specialise in Spanish tutoring for teenagers, originally from Barcelona and based in China for 13 years, with 10 years of experience teaching Spanish in international schools in Shanghai. I have worked with both British and American curricula and specialise in Spanish exam preparation, including IGCSE Spanish, A-Level Spanish and AP Spanish, as well as support for students following the IB Spanish programme.

I hold a Master’s degree in Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language and have completed over 3,000 hours of teaching at an official Spanish institution. There, I taught Spanish courses at all levels, prepared students for official DELE exams (including A2–B1 Escolar), and contributed to the organisation of cultural activities.

My Spanish lessons for teenagers focus on building solid grammatical foundations, strong speaking skills and exam confidence, supported by carefully designed materials and a personalised approach. Each course begins with an initial diagnostic lesson, during which I assess the student’s level, build a learner profile, set clear goals together with the student, and propose a tailored study plan.

Progress is reviewed regularly, and a written progress report is provided every 10 lessons, outlining achievements, areas for improvement and next steps, so that progress is measurable and transparent. I offer online Spanish lessons adapted to each student’s level and school programme.

Languages for explanations: English (preferred), Chinese, and French.
Rates: negotiable for long-term learning plans.
