Richard's profile picture

Information About Richard:


Personal Description:

Native Spanish speaker born in Venezuela, from Italian descent. Fluent in Spanish, Italian and English. I've had the experience of living in South America, the United States, Italy, and now the UK. Music and languages are my big passions. I hold a degree in Music Performance and am currently pursuing further studies in Music Technology.



Teaching Experience:

2005-2007 Guitar group & private lessons to people all-ages in Dallas, TX, USA

2007-2008 Session guitarist and music producer at Beyond Music Studios, Caracas, Venezuela

2007-2008 Italian & English tutor in group and private settings at language institute "Centro Cultural de Idiomas Ruge", Caracas, Venezuela.

2009-2011 Spanish and Italian tutor doing freelance, as well as worked for the Chris Polatch Foreign Language Courses in and around Cambridge, UK



Tutoring Approach:

I like to customize lessons to each student's needs. I also incorporate different cultural backgrounds that identify where I come from and where I've lived to expand the student's knowledge about different cultures. In music lessons incorporating world-styles of music and in languages incorporating cultural behaviors and traditions from the countries in which people speak the languages I teach.

My main goal is to identify the trouble spots in students and be able to explain them in different ways to make sure the students are enthusiastic with the lessons
