Description

*****Due to the high number of requests, please just send me a message stating your desired date and time to meet. Calendar on Doucma doesn't reflect my actual availability. *****

Hello! My name is Margarita and I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California, USA to Mexican parents. I currently live in Bratislava. I speak two languages at a native bilingual level: English and Spanish. I'm currently learning Slovak passively, at a really slow pace.

I got my Master's Degree in Teaching English as a Second Language. Back in the US, I was an ESL teacher for 5 years. I've had students from all over the world whose ages range from 15-65. I've worked in both private and public sectors, in a class with several students and on a more personal level: 1-on-1. I'm currently an English teacher in Petrazalka.

My teaching approach is simple: adapt to my student's learning style. Every student learns differently and I aim to make it my goal to cater efficiency and effectiveness. I offer conversational English and Spanish. I also offer a more structured approach, that is, English grammar lessons through interactive activities, a focus on vocabulary and real-life English application. I am a huge fan of fun so I try to make my lessons engaging but also challenging.

If you can't get ahold me of, send me your email and I will respond :)
Shoot me a message if you think I might be a good fit for you. Thanks!

S Margaritou som absolvoval osobne niekoľko hodinín konverzacií s cieľom zlepšiť komunikáciu v angličtine. Rozhovory boli príjemné, Margarita pripravila rôzne témy a otázky. Niekedy sme sa len voľne rozprávali podľa toho čo ma zaujalo. Je možné sa tiež dozvedieť zaujímavosti, rozdiely medzi krajinami USA, Mexiko, Slovensko. Za mňa môžem odporučiť.

Thank you Peter, that means a lot. I really enjoyed our conversations and I hope we get the chance to reconnect soon :)
