Your time is precious and so is mine😊 ! Please, try to be punctual, as I can't stay longer if you're late. Besides, if you're taking a first lesson with me, make sure you confirm your attendance. Behind the screen, there's a human being just like you who has a life and obligations too.❤
ME AS A TEACHER AND TEACHING STYLE
I consider myself to be an easy person to talk to, patient and fun. I have experience teaching different kinds of students from kids to adults in both online and classroom settings (more than 3000 lessons online + 3 years of classroom setting experience). I have been implementing a combination of the Flipped classroom and communicative approach into the lessons and so far, I have seen great improvement in my students' ability to communicate. My focus is to make you speak NATURAL and EVERYDAY Spanish, and understand Spanish speakers thanks to a system and a 30' routine.
TYPES OF LESSONS AND MATERIALS:
🎥Action programme (B1-B2 LEVEL): we'll learn Spanish language and culture together thanks to the famous series called "AQUÍ NO HAY QUIEN VIVA". If you're an intermediate student this programme will specifically enhance your listening skills and will improve your performance in everyday situations so that you can connect effectively with locals.
📚Flipped classroom programme (A1-B2LEVEL): You'll be learning everyday language and culture during these sessions by affordable mini tasks that you can do in 30' a day. The programme will especially boost your speaking skills for everyday situations in an organized, structured and visual way. Materials will be sent every weekend (video lessons, PDFS, flashcards, grammar games...) and all skills will be covered.
📚🎥Flex lessons: They can be a mix of structure lesson (the one above) and flexible lessons.
EXTRA:
⭐I give mini lessons on my social networks.

Raquel is the most zealous language teacher I have ever known. She takes great effort in preparing each lesson. For eg, the before class live worksheets, flashcards, short video clips and others. She will write down everything I learnt and pdf it on googledrive for me to download. The way she organised the Gdrive folder for me makes it easy for me to find the notes. Bcoz I can see how much time & consideration she puts into the preparation, I will try to make time to practice the before class lessons too. Not only is she really encouraging, Raquel is also a good listener. When she observe that I am struggling with a particular area. Eg, the different ways in which the "r" is given emphasis, she will gather addtional material for me to practice. N these material are short & easy to follow. For me, it is very important that the teaching material are interactive too because online language classes can get weary. But not with Raquel, God has blessed her works because she herself is zealous & passionate about what she does, Her enthusiam is teaching the language motivates me to carry on with vigour. The 1st word she taught me "Puedo hacherlo!"

Another good lesson. I liked the role play idea. It is important for me to be able to speak Spanish, so learning to respond to simple questions is an important first step.

As a complete beginner in Spanish - I started with using Duolingo in December of last ear - I am happy with the lessons so far. It as that I need to learn the numbers if I am to understand what is being said in a restaurant or shop.
