About Me
italki teacher since Aug 18, 2021Interest topicReadingTravelWriting
Hi everyone! My name is Catalina and I's like to give you a warm welcome to my profile.Me as a Teacher
I am a certified teacher by International House (Argentina, 2009) and hold a University Expert Diploma by UNED (Spain, 2021) in Spanish as a Second Language. Furthermore I have a Degree in Literature and Linguistics by University of Buenos Aires.
I have been teaching Spanish online to students of different nationalities for more than six years, developing my own material and exploring the different possibilities technology can offer. I love the art and craft of being a teacher.
As a storyteller, I have travelled many countries studying and offering workshops and shows. Thus, I've had the possibility of experiencing the different Spanish varieties that make the beauty of this language.My lessons & teaching style
My experience as a storyteller has allowed me to approach language in a creative way, learning a great deal about the ways in which people listen and maintain attention – something very important during a lesson! My academic training and teaching experience allows me to quickly identify what to work and how, offering clear explanations about the aspects of the language that may be problematic for Spanish learners.
It is the student’s interests, learning objectives and way of learning that shape the class. We will work on the four skills of language (in addition to oral and written interaction) using textbooks, games and a wide range of authentic material.My teaching material
