I use various resources in the teaching process, including those I find online and those I create myself, depending on my student's needs. My classes range from clearly teaching the grammar necessary for language construction to guiding the process of acquiring oral communication skills, all depending on your needs.
Based on my experience in the educational field, I can say that two of the most important aspects I consider in the learning and teaching process are the student's needs and their learning styles.
I encourage lots of oral communication, however the other three skills are present at any time of the classes. I can prepare and explain any topic you want to consider for your learning process.

About Me
Hello, I’m Ricardo. I was born in Medellin, Colombia and I am currently based in this city (the city of eternal spring) where I enjoy a full and enriching life. I am passionate about reading, cinema, music, sports, and languages (I've studied French and currently learning German). Additionally, I deeply value the moments shared with my family and friends. I deeply believe that being an autonomous user of any language can give you access to new ideas and cultures and basically different ways to perceive the world and the people in it.
Education
I did my undergraduate program in Tecnológico de Antioquia in Bacheloar's Degree in Education with emphasis in the Spanish Language and my master's degree in Foreign Language Teaching and Learning in Universidad de Antioquia, Medellín Colombia. However, previous to that, I studied Advertising and Visual Communication and then I complemented these studies with Marketing. On top of that, my passion for languages led me to study French and I am currently learning German.
Experience / Qualifications
I have been working as an ESL for over 20 years in different places such as a prestigious bilingual school, several English academies and universities such as Universidad de Antioquia and Universidad Católica Luis Amigó. I also make part of the British Council working as a remote teacher for several kinds of learners. I love to teach face to face with my students, however I have been able to adapt to the virtual courses where I have learned to work with a variety of online tools. Based on my working experience, I know how important it is to get adapted to the student's needs and learning styles. Therefore, those are some of the most important aspects I take into consideration when teaching my learners.
