He tenido la oportunidad de trabajar como científico y docente durante al menos 10 años. Considero que la empatía, la escucha activa y la buena comunicación son las herramientas principales de un buen docente que busca el desarrollo académico e intelectual de sus estudiantes. He tenido la oportunidad de obtener mi título de máster en Química Sostenible. También me titulé como especialista universitario en Nuevas Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación aplicadas a la educación. Logré obtener mi título de Licenciado en Química.

Hi! My name is Diego and I would like to teach English. I learnt English at school but also by watching TV and movies, and reading a lot. I’m a writer, and I write mostly in English, so since I love playing with language I try to conduct my classes in a way that instills that same sense of fun in my students. I have experience teaching kids and teenagers, both one on one and in groups, and I find it so, so rewarding to help students fall in love with English they way I did when I was little. In my experience, teaching is all about making the student feel safe to voice any doubts they might have, ask any questions… basically, to make sure they’re not afraid to be wrong, that they’re not afraid to try, so that they don’t get frustrated when something doesn’t come naturally to them or takes a little bit longer to understand. That’s a good teacher-student relationship in my opinion; to make them feel like you’re not there to teach and test them but to help them and hold their hand through their learning journey. For my first class with each student I would like to get to know them a little bit, A) so that I can get a sense of their English level and then take it from there, and B) so I can then try to incorporate their interests and customize my classes; for instance, if the student likes pop music, we can use lyrics from their favorite songs as a tool. It’s all about making their learning feel useful, and graspable, and hopefully in some way relatable; as opposed to too abstract and overwhelming. Soy graduado en Comunicación Audiovisual (en modalidad bilingüe) y tengo un máster en Guion de Cine y Televisión, ambos por la Universidad Carlos III de Madrid. En cuanto al inglés, tengo acreditado un nivel C1 Advanced por Cambridge English. I have a bachelor's degree in Film, Television and Media Studies and a master's in Screenwriting for Film and TV. My Cambridge English qualification is a C1 Advanced.
