LoginEva - Brighton tutor
Information About Eva:
Personal Description:
I am a Spanish woman resident in Brighton. Since I was very very young I have been interested in languages. I started learning English as a foreign language hen I was 7 and by 14 I was pretty good! I have always worked in language related jobs and have a very good grasp for it.
Teaching Experience:
I have worked as an independent private tutor in London (can provide references) for 2 years.
Visiting lecturer on Institutional Translation at the University of Westminster.
French language teacher in Adult Education, Aldgate.
English teacher for hotel business workers, Spain (part of FORCEM EU adult training program)
Tutoring Approach:
I believe the communicative approach (learning fixed expressions in particular contexts) is fun and useful, but I do think the base of a long term language learning is understanding the grammar, taking bit by bit as the pieces of a puzzle that, when mastered, can form endless images. This can be fun too and always very interesting. Having learned English, French and Italian as foreign languages myself, I know how to explain language in a way that is very easy to grasp, as I will constantly present you resemblances in Spanish and English that you never thought existed but that will look so obvious all of a sudden... Same as, as Europeans, we are all so similar in many ways, our languages are also very similar in lots of ways, I will just make you see it!
