HOLA! My name is Joe, and I’m originally from Venezuela, and with a very extensive background: My father was born in Venezuela as well, from Portuguese/Spanish family. My mom is from Uruguay, from Brazilian/Italian family. You can get the picture of the complexity of languages I was formed in, having this mix.
Currently I’m teaching Spanish in two different institutes. In my position as Spanish Instructor, I have performed my skills as I have enjoyed teaching my native language to several groups and private classes as well, with a very wide diversity of ages, nationalities and NEEDS.
While Working in Universidad Xochicalco in Tijuana, Mexico, I have improved my skills as an Instructor at a University Level, having teenagers to attend to my classes.
Also in Venezuela, I started developing my skills as a Professor at Universidad de Guayana, where I have several classes In some summer camps, I taught ESL to kids in a Private academy. This definitely has awakened my desire of keep teaching, as I discovered a real vocation in me within the classrooms.
The fact that I have lived in several Countries in Latin America, and visit some others, makes me a good match with your needs, since you won’t only have the experience of a regular Spanish instructor, but also, the possibility of learning a very complex language, from a person who knows the small differences of culture, dialects and vocabulary in Latin America.
Whether you are required to learn technical vocabulary, working in a Spanish environment, having a trip to a Latin-American country or Spain, want to communicate in better basis with your new family or friends, or just for the fun of learning a new language, I will be able to accommodate my skills, to your needs. Hope to hear from you soon. Nos vemos pronto! Do you want to be part of our team? Please apply here. | |
