Bio:
I'm Colin, an English teacher with over 8 years of experience teaching both in person and online to students of all ages and levels. Since 2016, I’ve been working as a freelance tutor, offering personalized lessons to Spanish-speaking students in Spain and around the world. I specialize in preparing students for international exams such as IELTS, Cambridge, and Oxford, but I also support those looking to improve their fluency, grammar, or English for travel and work purposes.
My teaching methodology:
Students can expect a dynamic, engaging, and supportive learning environment in my classes. My goal is to make the content meaningful, accessible, and applicable to real-world situations. Here's what students can expect in terms of materials, assessments, and activities: Class Expectations: Active Participation: Classes are interactive, with discussions, group work, and problem-solving activities designed to deepen understanding. Growth Mindset Encouraged: Mistakes are seen as opportunities to learn. I value effort, curiosity, and improvement over perfection.
My teaching background:
I have over 8 years of experience teaching English. Throughout these years, I have worked with a wide variety of students, including children, teenagers, and adults, in both in-person and online settings, always adapting my methods to each student's individual needs. I have prepared students for official exams such as [DELE, TOEFL, IELTS, DELF, etc.], as well as for academic, professional, or personal purposes. I specialize in promoting oral communication from the very first day of class, combining practical grammar with conversation. In addition, I have experience working with students from different cultures and proficiency levels, from complete beginners to advanced learners. This has allowed me to develop a flexible, empathetic, and effective teaching approach.
My background outside of teaching:
I have had the opportunity to travel and work in different countries and across various sectors, which has given me a broad and practical perspective of the world, as well as a strong ability to adapt to different cultural and professional contexts. This experience in diverse environments has helped me better understand the real needs of students who are learning a language to communicate effectively in everyday life, at work, or while traveling. Thanks to these personal and professional journeys, I understand what it means to face a new language and culture, and I use that knowledge to create dynamic, relevant, and personalized lessons. My goal is for each student to feel motivated, supported, and well-prepared to achieve their language goals—whether it's improving fluency, preparing for an exam, or gaining confidence in real-life situations.
