Hello! How are you? My name is Anna. I am from Barcelona. Do you know this beautiful city? I can also teach you Catalan.
My methodology includes a lot of conversation, some grammar and writing and I will give you some homework for the next class. In our first class, we will get to know each other, I will give you a short and simple test to assess your level. We will discuss this, along with your particular needs, goals and preferences. I have a lot of resources and materials to share with you and make this learning experience something motivating and fun. I can personalize each class to your requirements. If we work together and you are motivated, I am sure you will be really happy with your progress.
I think that making mistakes is not a problem as long as your teacher makes you aware that you've made a mistake. A mistake is always good thing as long as you can learn something from it. And I promise you will!! A lot!! What is important is not to be ashamed and talk, talk and talk!!! I promise I will do my best to help you to learn or improve your Spanish. I LOVE teaching. I will be happy to meet you if you want to take a trial class. So… ¡vamos allá!
I am a pharmacist and I also have a master’s degree in Nutrition. I like languages very much, so I decided to study Translation also. I am very happy when I meet people from other countries and when I can speak other languages. My mother languages are Spanish and Catalan, so if you are planning on coming to Barcelona, I may help you to learn some basic words and sentences also. If you need someone to help you here in Spain, I will be glad to help you.
I have already taught Spanish in the United States, France and Belgium, where I lived for many years. I spent a year in the United States as an exchange student, when I was very young, and I understand the difficulties that a student may find when learning a new language. It is like a puzzle, the more you know, the better the different pieces fit together and you get to the objective.
I am currently improving my teaching skills through a teaching course from the European University Miguel de Cervantes and ELEInternacional; I am getting some training to become a Neurolanguage coach and I am doing an Orthotypography course. Additional information about me: I have worked in different pharmacies in France, Belgium and Spain. In addition I have two masters degrees in Translation specializing in Medicine.

I have known Anna for many years and she has personally helped me attain fluency in Spanish (and even helped me understand a bit of spoken Catalan as well). She is an excellent teacher, who loves to share her love of languages with others. Anna is patient, dedicated, and has a relaxed style that helps a student enjoy the process of learning a language.
I have, for many years, witnessed Anna's commitment to learning English and other languages. She is well versed in language acquisition and is an excellent teacher of her native language. She explains clearly and meets her students at their level!
