About Alex

I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and graduated from Tulane University with a double major in Spanish and Latin American Studies. I am an engaging and effective tutor with training and years of experience. I have been passionate about Spanish, Latin American literature, and music for much of my life and I bring that same energy to the classroom every day.

I tailor my curriculum to meet each student’s goals and am able to accurately target my class with relevant activities. I most recently taught business English to corporations in Mexico City, and have spent years working with both students aged 12-18 and adults. I will work with you to establish an effective curriculum/course plan that meets your language learning goals.

I am patient and have training in proper correction techniques for both oral and written exercises. When teaching vocabulary or grammar, I first create a need so that my student is in a scenario where they naturally use the target language or grammar while speaking. I am well practiced in asking guided and leading questions to elicit productive responses. When I teach literature, I make sure my student is aware of the historical and literary context.

My students enjoy my classes as they are naturally discursive and participation-based. I rarely lecture, and check often for questions and comprehension.

I tailor each class to the students' needs and will always prioritize student conversation and interaction over lecturing. I have a lesson plan ready before each session and will usually start by emphasizing the target language of the day. I incorporate media and current events into my lessons. My students have fun in class, and as a result they learn faster and retain information better. I require maximum language production (whether written or oral) after first establishing comprehension.
