Conversational English
I have taught Elementary leves for kids, teens and adults.
Working with English people
I love talking to my students about social problems that we can help to solve together as a class. I believe that our students need to learn to express themselves, and to give their point of view regarding issues that they might experience.
Having English friends
Communication at work is very important, and I have taught business people as well.
Reading and writing English
I believe that Social Media, could be used to develop this skill. I love using these resources in order to achieve our goals.
Understanding English movies
I love when my students write essays describing their point of view on different topics. I love when they defend their ideas and support them with examples.

Experience
I've got five years as an English teacher, I've taught kids, teens and adults.
Teaching Approach
I have been a mentor to some TEFL students who were studying to be future teachers at my current job, always asking me questions, or pieces of advice.
Regarding that, I am always willing to help my peers, and my students in order to achieve our goals together.
Furthermore, I have given plenty of tutoring classes for single students, and I am convinced that a more personal experience with the student, can develop his or her learning ability.
Not only do I think that having one to one classes is better, I also believe that giving real situations, role plays and games could actually help a lot in a classroom. I like incorporating videos, music and games to my classes, as I believe they are a good resource to learn from, and I prefer that my students learn in that way.
