About Me
MUSIC! LITERATURE! TRAVEL!
FOOD! CHESS! POKER!
I'm an easy-going person, I appreciate having discussions about various subjects, I am pretty open-minded.
I’m happy to be here and get the opportunity to share some stories about my place and use them to teach you. I like to meet people with different cultures, languages and opinions, I’ll enjoy if you teach me something from your habits and traditions.
Before this adventure, I used to give lessons in a junior high school, I’ve experience with the management of students from eleven until fifteen years old, we read books from different classic writers around the world, we practiced writing, grammar, personal expressions, vocabulary, theater presentations, poetry and many many subjects that made me really appreciate my job; I was interested in helping them with skills to develop their creativity. I managed to lead and maintain authority on the group, but I also had a lot of fun with my pupils.
Moreover, last September I took a special class of 4 weeks to teach Spanish to foreigners; meanwhile, I had some students who I taught privately, I worked with people from India, Ireland, USA and Australia, I have very good memories of them. I hope to continue growing as an instructor of my language and that you take a pleasant experience and fulfill your purpose of learning it.
Let's do it!

Great teacher! I highly recommend! I speak very little Spanish and was worried it would be a problem. Sergio was wonderful and all my fears went away quickly. He spoke slow enough for me to understand and when I had a hard time understanding he would re-phrase the question for me. I actually really enjoyed the lesson and plan on continuing. Gracias Sergio!
