I am a licensed teacher of Foreign Languages, Specialist in Pedagogy and currently I am attending a Master’s Degree in Education; with experience in teaching Research Methodology and English at all levels, as virtual as face-to-face. I have taught children, teens and adults in small and large groups which has allowed me to gain experience and knowledge in lesson planning, material design and teaching research.
Similarly, I am a very responsible, dynamic and creative teacher with additional experience in the use of technological tools as a means of support to my classes and in teaching pronunciation to English learners and teachers. I have worked in national bilingualism projects and have worked as an English teachers' Trainer and giving academic and didactic strategies on English teaching methodology and trends.
Finally, I want to say that teaching is a process that not only involves knowledge, but also it is a process that requires an enormous amount of love in every single part of this process. Fortunately, I have learned to identify this characteristic and apply it into my daily life. And this is something that I did not learn at any Institution, this is something that is going to be with me for the rest of my life because I learned it from the best teacher; I learned it from my Mother.
Once I started to understand this, apparently, simple concept, then I fell in love with my job; I see students as my own children and my colleagues as brothers. I do understand that becoming a Teacher is a matter of meeting a long list of requirements, and I do not want to change that but I want to let you know that I meet a requirement that could be as necessary as all the ones you are asking for, even when it is not seen as a “requirement”: I really love teaching.
Thanks for reading my words.
