About
I would like my students to know that I love to teach! I've been a college professor for the past 4 years, and my method as a teacher stands out, because of the fact that I studied to become one, and my teaching skills are high level, since I usually work with young students at college and professionals.
I love meeting new people, and making connections with my students, to encourage them to be the best versions of themselves! I'm 100% bilingual, which helps me organize my ideas in different lenguages, and provide answers in different perspectives.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I first proceed to a level test, in which I can meassure their english level and decide the content that will fit the best for the classes.
After the first class, I discuss the content with my students, to verify that we both agree on the content. After that I make a schedule based on the content, so we can eventually measure their development.

I have prepared over the years for teaching, and some of my trainings include:
2019 – NTA Certification. National Tutoring Academy. Maracaibo, Venezuela.

How did you get started teaching?
After I graduated college, I was called by the school director because of my grades, and they wanted me to teach marketing classes on the morning shift. Two weeks after the interview I started with 4 groups of teens.
That was when I realized I loved to teach. Since then, I've been called for personalized classes, and prep requests for CAMBRIDGE, TOEIC, TRINITY, BULATS and APTIS.
I have developed over the years great teaching content, based on international authors, and also, based on my own research.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with several groups like:
-Kids.
-Teenagers.
-Adults.
-Business groups.
-Basic level groups.
-Intermediate groups.
-Advanced groups.
-Proficiency groups.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I recently finished prepping a group of teens for the Cambridge test, on which I had beeen working with for over 9 months. It was really fulfilling to know, that weeks after it, all of them passed with excelent scores.
I also had a very rewarding moment, when my last group of executives passed the TOEIC test with very high levels. That's what I love about teaching, to know that my students realy do learn in my classes.
