Cecé Gamarra Tantaleán

I'm an interdisciplinary artist and I hold a degree in Communication, I've been travelling for 8 years around Latin America, teaching in academic and alternative spaces, so students can expect dynamic, engaging classes that emphasize conversation and practical language use. My teaching method is based in Humanistic Method, which focuses on each student's individual needs, interests, and goals. Creating a positive environment that boosts students' confidence and motivates them to learn.

I use a wide range of exercises to keep students engaged and improve their language skills, such as: - Authentic texts: News articles, short stories, and literary works to provide real-world context and enhance language comprehension. - Audiovisual resources: Movies, tv shows, lyrics training, music and podcasts to develop listening comprehension and speaking skills. - Grammar and vocabulary exercises: Worksheets, online quizzes, and other materials to reinforce key language concepts. - Role-playing and conversation activities: To practice speaking and listening in realistic, engaging contexts.

I have taught in different environments and to different people of different ages. I've been a private tutor (face-to-face) for Portuguese and English speakers, helping them in their pronunciation and vocabulary enrichment through readings, conversation, listening, vocal exercises, graphic creation and audiovisual material, each material was personalized for each student. I have a background in Communications, so it's an advantage if you want to use spanish in academic or business contexts, as well as in travel contexts with foreign countries.

Throughout my career, I have developed various projects related to inmigration, memory, community, territory, as well as mental and spiritual health, addressing these themes through diverse tools and artistic disciplines. Over the past ten years, I have led workshops and experimental art creation labs across different regions of Latin America, working with people of all ages. This experience has allowed me to integrate unique perspectives into my teaching approach, particularly focusing on the connection between art, mental well-being, and spiritual growth. I'm the creator of Cartas Salvajes, an editorial project where we create art objects and unconventional reading formats. Currently, I am developing a project that explores the intersection of biomaterials and poetry, further expanding the boundaries of artistic expression and personal reflection.
