Experience
In recent years I have worked as an Academic Director at a Language School in northern Spain. My job duties there included designing intensive Spanish courses for beginners’, intermediate and advanced levels, as well as teaching both on-site and via Skype. This constant interest has allowed me to become familiar with techniques and tools that are essential in today´s second language learning, such as the materials used by the Cervantes Institute and the most renowned publications and blogs in the field of language teaching. Most particularly, I have made extensive use of audiovisuals and creative writing activities in order to develop consistent, effective Spanish courses. As an on-line teacher, I have steadily used different technology applications in language learning (Skype, Google Drive, various apps, blogs & ELE websites, such ashttps://www.difusion.com/). My tasks as a teacher included setting homework and giving feedback to my students, according to their needs, on a regular basis, as well as keeping accurate register of their attendance and progress. Graduated in Hispanic Philology and Masters in Applied French, I have always kept up with my teaching training and have recently completed a CELTA course. This further training has provided me with the familiarity to different teaching methodologies, which have proven to be extremely useful in my classes.
