Private tutor in Washington, DC
Education
Ph. D. Spanish Philology (language and Literature), University of Barcelona Master in Applied Linguistics in Teaching Spanish as a Second Language
Experience
5 years tutoring Spanish as a Second Language in Barcelona (Spain) Almost 20 years of experience Spanish Language and Literature at a High School level. Professioral Lecturer at a University level. I am a highly qualified and experienced teacher of Spanish. On my tutoring approach I design the kind of lessons you really need for your purposes (academic, conversational, stressing especial vocabulary or stressing specific grammar notions). Let me know what your needs are and I will help you to reach your goals. Having been myself a foreign languages student for about 20 years, I am able to relate to your difficulties and needs. I know how to accommodate to different learning styles. I'm fluent in four other languages (Catalan, French, English, Italian) and have a working knowledge of Portuguese. The acquisition of a foreign language is my main subject of interest, especially the cultural and psychological aspects of it. I enjoy creating links and understanding among cultures and their "ways of naming reality."
