Fun Spanish lessons for kids and adults with songs, cartoons and movies

Hello, my name is Kateryna. I will be glad to become your Spanish teacher. I also speak and can teach Ukrainian, Russian, English and Dutch :) I like to learn new things, especially languages. And also to share knowledge and study methods. I write poems and prose, draw abstractions. I believe in the perfection of the world and a bright future.

I have 3 years of experience as a teacher:
1 year of experience teaching Spanish online;
2 years of experience in private online English lessons;
7 months of offline English language teaching experience for Ukrainian refugees in the Netherlands.

Interesting and fun Spanish lessons for children and adults who remain children at heart.

We watch cartoons, listen to songs, read poetry and prose. We analyze what is happening there, we speak out loud a lot, put pronunciation, do interesting exercises. We also sing a lot - because this is the best way to learn a new language.

I also arrange a practice with a native Ecuadorian. I myself lived in Ecuador and Spain for a long time, and I practice using the language with native speakers every day.

Vrije ziel, dichter, schrijver, kunstenaar. Ik spreek Oekraïens, Russisch, Spaans, Engels and een beetje Nederlands. Ik geloof that alles altijd perfect is and ik vind de positieve kant in mensen. We kunnen allemaal alles doen, het belangrijkste is om het verlangen te hebben. A voorstander of the Hawaiian philosophy of ho'oponopono and a positive kijk. Later, we shared some money :)
Nice y cheerful Russian from a Ukrainian woman. The emphasis is mainly on the speaking part, because speaking is the purpose of language.

Native English Lessons for all ages and abilities.
As a native English speaker sometimes I am asked: well why is there three different words for (their there and they’re but they all sound the same?) A question I would love to answer with you in one of our tutoring sessions. I can work with younger children to establish basics, right the way through to adults wishing to perfect their speaking skills. In addition, I have a plethora of English texts to work with for students wishing to focus on English Literature. I have an A-level and GCSE qualification in English. I will tailor lessons to your needs/ability and age. I provide speaking, listening and writing activities. For children, I will work with a shared document, where I will keep a record of your child’s progress, the actives we did and their homework. Parents are welcome to be present. For adults I will provide a shared document of your homework and progress. I am happy to offer online or in person sessions for children/adults. I can also offer help with university applications in the United Kingdom and English examination preparation and application.

María de Carmen
Learn and practicing spanish with a native teacher
Native Spanish teacher based in Dordrecht, The Netherlands. I have a certificate from the Instituto Cervantes as a teacher of Spanish as a foreign language. I am passionate not only to teach Spanish but also to share the Latin culture and all that it implies to learn a new language. My method is to use an interesting topic in each lesson that keeps your interest in the new language, practicing a lot and not just focusing on the grammar rules. Classes will be guided in English, but especially in Spanish, with cooking classes and fun workshops. I can also organize group classes if you prefer, depending on the number of people and classes. If you are a Spanish native living abroad and you want your children to continue practising the language, I can combine babysitting with teaching.
