We as Teachers
Ana es especialista en la creación de materiales visuales y en la enseñanza del idioma a niveles iniciales. Xavi trabaja en el sector turístico y es el compañero ideal para tus clases de conversación y para ayudarte con la fluidez. Además, a los dos nos gusta aprender lenguas, por lo que empatizamos con los retos que tiene un estudiante de idiomas.

Xavi works in the tourist sector and he’s the ideal partner for your conversation lessons and to help you with your fluency. Moreover, both of us love learning languages and that’s the reason why we empathize with challenges a language learner has.
Our Lessons & Teaching Style
Consideramos que aprender a comunicarse en un idioma es primordial, así que nuestro enfoque está en la comunicación. Aun así, no nos olvidamos del resto de destrezas lingüísticas y la gramática. Además, nuestra forma de enseñar es interactiva, motivadora y divertida. Aprenderás haciendo y repitiendo, no solo memorizando. No tendremos problema en utilizar el inglés como lengua vehicular a niveles bajos y puntualmente para aclaraciones a niveles intermedios o altos.
Our focus is on communication, as we think that learning to communicate is key when learning a language. Nevertheless we won’t leave the other language skills and grammar behind. Our teaching style is interactive, engaging and fun. You will learn by doing and repeating, not only memorizing. We won’t hesitate using English as a means to help explain some points in a clear and concise way with lower levels and, if necessary, for clarifications with intermediate and high levels.
