About Me

Hi! I’m Ms. Ala — a fun, loving, and adventurous teacher who believes that learning should be exciting, meaningful, and full of discovery.

With over 10 years of experience working with children and teens ages 1 to 18, I’ve developed a hands-on, personalized teaching style that adapts to each student’s unique needs and learning style. Whether we're practicing phonics, tackling grammar, or diving into creative projects, I always aim to make lessons feel like an adventure — not a chore!

I'm deeply empathetic, patient, and focused on creating a safe, supportive space where my students feel confident to learn, explore, and express themselves. Every lesson is a chance to connect, grow, and have fun — together.

Let’s turn learning into something your child truly loves! 💫

Education

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Educational Psychology from Universidad Iberoamericana (UNIBE) in the Dominican Republic, where I developed a strong foundation in learning theory, child behavior, and educational assessment. I later pursued a Master’s degree in Child Development at the University of Haifa in Israel, an internationally recognized program that deepened my understanding of cognitive, emotional, and social development in children and adolescents across diverse cultural contexts.

Experience / Qualifications

I have over 10 years of experience working with children and teenagers in a wide range of settings, including classroom environments as a homeroom teacher, therapeutic spaces, after-school programs, and individualized tutoring sessions. My time as a homeroom teacher has given me deep insight into the daily academic and emotional needs of students, allowing me to build strong relationships, create structured yet engaging learning environments, and support both their educational and personal development.

I am Carolina and I am a native English teacher from Ireland. I have taught over a hundred students, both in school and online as private students. I have plenty of experience preparing classes and helping students to improve their written, oral, aural and English.

I am preparing students for the B2 examination, and I also teach business english to students from large corporations such as Paypal.

The class is about you, so whatever you need, I tailor my class around you and your goals. I always try to make the classes as engaging as possible and I will first ask you about your interests. I combine your interests and make personalised English lessons that focus on specific objectives for each class. We often do revisions and go back over material so that nothing is forgotten.

Most of my students have a really good time, we laugh a lot and we forget that we are learning.

About me: I studied English Literature and Spanish in Trinity College Dublin, and then I obtained a TEFL qualification. I am teaching in La Salle in Barcelona and I am giving private English classes online to students and professionals.

I look forward to hearing from you and if we are a match.

I am Mavi, a physics engineer working at an aerospace company.
I have been teaching private lessons at the primary, secondary, high school, and university preparatory levels for 9 years. I teach mathematics, physics, chemistry, and science. I have a good command of the curricula of IB, IGCSE, American, Hong Kong, and international schools.

Additionally, I hold the position of president at the Astronomy Society, where I foster my students' interest in astronomy and science beyond the lessons. I prepare the learning environment by incorporating experiments and exploration, moving away from rote education. I often bring experimental materials to class, aiming to make learning memorable through hands-on experiments.

As an educational mentor, I approach my students as if they were my siblings, valuing creativity. I have a deep passion for mathematics, physics, and science. I am dedicated to helping students understand and learn because life encompasses both SCIENCE and ART. The more people I can inspire to know, understand, and love mathematics, physics, and chemistry, the more proud I am.

👋 Do you find math difficult, confusing, or do you feel it's holding you back academically?
You're not alone. Many students lose confidence because they lacked a solid foundation or because the pace of the class wasn't right for them. The good news is that it is possible to learn math safely and without stress.

✔️ International Baccalaureate (IB) School
Classes focused on deep understanding, problem-solving and preparation for IB-type assessments and exams, using specialized material and clear strategies.

✔️ University
Classes in Basic Mathematics, Differential and Integral Calculus, Differential Equations, Linear Algebra, Topology, among others.
I have accompanied students of Economics, Administration, Engineering and Science, helping them to pass demanding courses and significantly improve their academic performance.

📩 If you want to improve in math and leave frustration behind, write to me and let's talk.

Nice to meet you! My name is Violeta, and I study at the University of Barcelona. I recently graduated with honors from high school. I love teaching because it's a way to help others by sharing knowledge. Teaching and learning are among the most important things in life, and it should be a fun and enriching process, which is what I like to convey in my classes. I offer tutoring in any subject for primary and secondary school students. At the high school level, I only offer tutoring in the core subjects (Spanish Language and Literature, Philosophy, English, and History) and those related to the Health Sciences track. Let's get to know each other!

I am a passionate teacher. I love personalized instruction. I hold a C2 level certificate in Catalan from the Barcelona Linguistic Normalization Consortium and a B2 level certificate in English from the Vall d'Hebron Official Language School (EOI) in Barcelona. I am currently volunteering as a basic Catalan teacher for immigrants at the Ires Foundation in Barcelona. I am passionate about my dynamic approach to teaching, where oral expression takes center stage, combining grammar and reading comprehension to help students become familiar with the Catalan language through fluid and engaging conversation. In the past, I have taught Catalan orally to primary school students, who were very satisfied with their grades. At the Vall d'Hebron EOI, I also gave private English lessons for a time to third-year students. I used a dynamic and practical conversational method, combined with grammar and reading comprehension exercises using textbook texts and newspaper articles. Through word-of-mouth recommendations, I was able to gather more people who committed to taking private lessons with me, with the goal of guaranteeing a passing grade on their school's midterm and final exams. With my teaching experience, I must add that I enjoy teaching languages individually, as I consider languages a precious cultural heritage that should be promoted and practiced in every possible setting where we have the opportunity to communicate and preserve the dialectical richness that languages offer us.

My approach is based on adapting to the needs, level, and goals of each student. I believe that learning is most effective in an environment of trust, respect, and motivation, so I prioritize close support and individualized instruction.

For my French classes, I focus on both comprehension and oral and written expression, combining theory and practice. As a native French speaker and bilingual in Spanish and English, I can adapt my explanations to the language the student is most comfortable with. My classes can focus on conversation, grammar, pronunciation, academic support, or exam preparation.

In academic support, I help students understand concepts, develop effective study methods, and gain independence. My goal is not only to improve academic performance but also to boost their confidence in their abilities.

Classes typically begin with a review of objectives and prior knowledge, followed by practical activities and exercises tailored to the student's level. We conclude with a summary of key points and recommendations for continued progress.

I also teach yoga classes. I am certified by Yoga Alliance (200 hours) and I adapt each session to the individual's level and needs, whether it's to improve mobility, strength, flexibility, or reduce stress.

My classes are aimed at children, teenagers and adults, from beginner to advanced level depending on the subject.
