Bio:
Hola, ¿cómo estás? My name is Maria Flor, and I’m currently living in Cologne, Germany. I enjoy teaching children, teenagers, and adults at all levels. I am ELE-certified, specialized in teaching children, and I have many years of experience working with adults. I love teaching because I can help my students improve their Spanish skills, exchange languages, meet learners from different parts of the world, and learn about their cultures.
My teaching methodology:
I like to adapt my classes according to my students’ goals. Generally, I employ an interactive methodology where I will use multimedia content, engaging topics, and work in areas where we’ll encounter difficulties learning Spanish. Moreover, I’ll encourage my students to speak as much as possible. In this way, they will improve their Spanish skills and gain confidence. As a result, my students will become familiar with the language and obtain fluency.
My teaching background:
I am a highly motivated teacher with over 10 years of experience educating children. I tutored in an elementary school, helping students with their classwork and homework in subjects such as communication, mathematics, science, religion, and calligraphy. I also taught Spanish to children in the USA for over three years. In addition, I worked at an academy where I taught online English to teenagers, with classes mainly focused on speaking and listening. Furthermore, I worked at a language center with undergraduate students from UCV University, where I taught online English at all levels.
My background outside of teaching:
I have a diverse background: I studied artistic photography and had the pleasure of traveling around Peru with international groups. I also worked as a manager in a Fairtrade company, where I collaborated with teenagers and volunteers. In addition, I volunteered with social NGOs in Peru as a Spanish and English teacher. From 2017 to 2022, I lived in California, USA, where I studied English and worked as a Spanish teacher. In 2022, I moved to Germany to learn German and pursue my master’s degree. Living in different countries has greatly improved my communication skills and taught me how to work with young learners, teenagers, and adults. It has also awakened my curiosity and shown me that I can learn anything-from baking a cake to learning a new language.
