About Me

Hi! I'm Nicolas, an English teacher with experience in personalized lessons for adults. My focus is on helping you speak with confidence and ease, no matter your current level.
My classes are practical, dynamic, and tailored to your interests—whether it’s improving your fluency for travel, preparing for an interview, or feeling more comfortable in everyday conversations.

I have experience in international education, having worked with students from different parts of the world, and I currently live in Spain. I enjoy creating a relaxed environment where you can learn without pressure and truly enjoy the process.

If you're looking for classes focused on conversation, useful vocabulary, and real-life practice, I’d be happy to help. Book a class and let’s get started!

Education

I hold a Master's degree in Marketing and Communication from ESIC Business & Marketing School (Spain) and a Bachelor's degree in International Business from Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola (Lima, Peru). I also have an advanced English certification and have completed various courses related to communication, teaching, and professional development.

I have experience teaching English to adults in one-on-one lessons, with a practical and communicative approach tailored to real-life situations such as interviews, remote work, presentations, and travel. My classes focus on improving fluency, expanding vocabulary, and building speaking confidence.

Growing up bilingual in German and English was as challenging as it was exciting and an experience that inspired my love for languages. Now I would love to share my knowledge on effortlessly mastering the ins and outs of these two infamous languages with you!

The lessons are hands-on, easily understandable and true-to-life, so you can go and use what you've learned right away. Moreover, I like to customise the lessons to the topics and hobbies that interest you so that we can build progress on familiar sole, have you make better connections to the language and have an overall better learning experience.

If it works with your schedule, I would also strongly recommend that we make homework a part of your class structure.

I am confident we can use whatever foundation and experiences you have to help you meet your language goals - whether you just want to smooth out the kinks or start from the very beginning.

You and I can figure this out together!

Learning languages is a must in today's life especially English. Multilingualism is becoming more and more important. n addition to opening up employment opportunities, being able to speak a foreign language helps to make a real connection with people and to know more about diverse cultures, places and lifestyles. The more proficient you are, the better you can express yourself. And I am here to help you get there, by learning grammar , conjugation ,vocabulary and day to day speaking or even for a profession. The classes will be helpful and useful, we will discover new ways to learn depending on your personality and try to make it fun learning experience!

Hi! My name is Harriet. I'm a native English teacher from the UK.

I have 6 years of teaching experience to all ages and levels. In particular I love to help people improve their fluency and confident when speaking but I also I can help you with your grammar, listening, writing and reading skills. In addition I am excellent at exam preparation and have lots of tips to offer.

I believe classes should be tailored to the particular needs of the student where you have my full attention and lots of opportunities to speak. Therefor I only private classes or small group classes (2 or 3 people).

A passionate and creative student with more than 10 years of experience in communication in the English language. I am here to help you discover the world of English in a fun and very practical way.

My main goal is to improve your speaking by using only English during our classes, as well as enhance your grammar, reading and listening skills. The classes with me are engaging and full of creativity. Moreover, I differentiate myself from other tutors by using my own methodology in teaching. My lessons are a combination of many books, where I pick the most efficient exercises to learn and make a personal "book" for each student depending on what requires more work. From time to time, I organise a group call/meeting, where my students and I communicate with each other over a cup of tea. That way, my scholars get to be in a multicultural environment, learning how to understand English with different accents and build connections with others in a new language.

I have completed an IELTS (International English Language Testing System) examination in 2019 with a CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference) level of B2. In my last EF SET (EF Standart English Test) in 2022, the results have shown an Advanced English Level (C1). In addition, I have studied bachelor's in Psychology in English for 3 years. These days, English is my first language to use in day-to-day life, which allows me to practice it 24/7, always finding something new for myself to learn.

As for the lessons themselves, they are online (Skype, worldwide) or face-to-face at the student's location (Barcelona). If you have any further questions, please, do not hesitate to send me a private message, I will always be happy to answer!

See you soon! :)

The goal is to be able to hold a conversation, express yourself spontaneously and practice the basics. Through talking about your interest we can expand your vocabulary. However you will be learning the fixed structures, verbs and tenses and pronunciation.

The first thing I do is to identify what stage of learning the learner is in and, from there, it provides me with the application of materials necessary to implement a teaching programme. The methodology is adapted to the intended language level, the learning objectives, the age of the learner, the language needs and difficulties. I teach languages in a gradual way, as clearly as possible and making the student feel comfortable, without making him/her feel afraid or embarrassed. I attach as much importance to the theoretical explanation as to the application of theory, and I require my students to be proactive (interactive and participative). When I teach languages, I teach understanding, speaking, reading and writing. Specifically, I teach language as a whole: I teach terminology, semantics (the meaning of morphemes and words and their combinations) and the branches of grammar: morphology (the form and structure of words), sentence syntax (the way words are combined) and word prosody (pronunciation).
I teach languages by applying dynamic teaching strategies, using activities that involve the learner, such as exercises, production of written and verbal speeches, games, staging real-life situations, dialogues, debates, reading, listening to the media, etc.
The teaching materials I use are effective and meet the following criteria: motivating, attractive, up-to-date (current, relevant topics), clear, appropriate (approachable), inclusive (various possibilities for interaction and different points of view), multimodal (varied), participatory, flexible (adaptable) and creative (original).
