About

I am a professional Certified ESL Online Teacher with a BA in English granted by Universidad Hispana from Utah, USA. I have more than 17 years of experience in the field of education and I worked in different places such as schools, universities, and local language institutes where I developed my skills. Additionally, I have worked as a Private Spanish Tutor with American, British, and Dutch people who needed to learn Spanish for different purposes. Since 2012, I have become a Member of the Translators provided by the American Embassy and I have worked on different projects by translating different kinds of documents, textbooks, brochures, websites, etc. One big achievement was dubbing a video for a state-of-the-art Tech Company to promote an English video dubbed in Spanish in Latin American countries. In 2019, I got my TEFL Advanced Certificate and have worked as an ESL Online Teacher for more than 4 years.

Online Spanish Tutor

I give Spanish classes to elementary and middle school students from the US. Schools have Spanish Online and students have 30 to 45 minutes classes. It is not a one-on-one session because of the number of students at school and it will vary from 10 to 25 students.
