Teaching methods

  • I offer comprehensive Spanish language courses aimed at developing the students’ ability to understand, speak, read and write in Spanish.
  • I use the communicative method (focuses on a language as a medium of communication; recognizing that all communication has a social purpose - learner has something to say or find out) and the task-based language learning (focuses on the use of authentic language and on asking students to do meaningful tasks using the target language. Such tasks can include visiting a doctor, conducting an interview, or calling customer service for help).
  • All my lessons are a combination of the 4 abilities no matter which one is your level: reading, writing, listening and speaking from the beginning.
  • Translation into English or French can be used depending on your level, but I tend to speak in Spanish all the time in order give the sense of immersion to the student.
