Hi, I'm Alejandra. I am a native speaker of Spanish. I am from Chile, South America.
I have a BA degree in Spanish from the Technological University Dublin.I have also done training for Spanish teachers in Instituto Cervantes ELE (español como lengua extranjera), in Dublin.
Since I can see the challenges and frustrations of learning a language, I can be more empathetic with my students in their own learning process.
A normal lesson will be tailored with communicative elements more than grammar. In order to help my students, I focus on their particular needs. I don't focus specifically on grammar unless the student needs it, rather I make learning a language an attractive experience by learning the culture, daily life routines, etc.

About Me
Hi, I'm Alejandra. I am a native speaker of Spanish. I am from Chile, South America.
I deliver online lessons. I am currently focusing on Spanish Leaving Cert, however, everyone who wants to learn Spanish is very welcome. I love sharing my language with others but also the knowledge acquired through all these years learning English. I always look for ways to adapt the lessons to my students' needs ,especially in this time of stress due the coronavirus. My students can share their knowledge without feeling embarrassed. I am aware of the difficulties of learning another language so that I am very patient, and I look for different ways of giving a lesson in which my student can enjoy.
