Do you find history and geography boring subjects? That's because you haven't contacted me yet. In these classes, I'll make studying the ancient Spanish monarchy, democratic governments, dictatorships, republics, wars, and everything related to them fun. Of course, I won't neglect another very important subject: geography. I'll teach you everything you want to know about it, including how drones work and their features!
Do not hesitate to contact me.

I have come very far in my development and am ready to share the knowledge that I have acquired over time. With pain, you can build empires based on bigger concepts, but the key is understanding your foundation - the platform where you stand and can feel free to navigate your external life. Want to know more? I'll teach you Philosophy in a fun way never seeing before. Does this resonate with you? I'll see you in class.

This class helps students who want to improve their French and Spanish speaking, grammar, and understanding. As a fluent French speaker with an international background, I focus on real world dialogue. Spanish and History are my college minors. I've been studying both and speaking with natives for 14 years.

In my course I help with pronunciation practice, explain grammar, conversational situations, and culture to help students better understand what being French really means.

Whether you are learning French Spanish or History for school, travel, or personal interest, I structure every session to the student’s level and goals.

With several years of experience as a student tutor, I offer to give lessons to students from sixth grade to twelfth grade, with the aim of support, homework help, reinforcement or in-depth study of concepts.
The lessons are fun, based on the needs and expectations of the student, with whom I spend time discussing in order to develop the working method together.
Although I place great importance on learning and understanding concepts, I also focus on improving the student's learning methods.
Typical structure of a one-hour lesson (duration and content may vary depending on individual needs)
-10 minutes of questions and discussion on the difficulties related to the last session.
-Divided into two 20-minute parts, with two different themes to vary the concepts covered, with both theoretical and practical work.
-10 final minutes devoted to any questions and reflection on the themes to be addressed in the next session.
