Updating my tutor profile (I'll appreciate your corrections, most of it has already been checked)
I have been teaching Spanish as a second language online since January 2015 and I have been teaching private classes in other subjects to teenagers for about 15 years. I also taught Catalan online for a while, but I decided to focus on Spanish grammar.
I was born in Barcelona and I am bilingual in Spanish and Catalan. I lived in London for nearly a year and I earned my First Certificate in English at the Polytechnic of Central London. Also, when I was young I earned a Certificat de la Langue Française at the l’Alliance Française de Paris, but I’m still learning both languages.
Apart from teaching, I’ve always worked directly with suppliers and customers of all kinds doing administrative tasks, so I am used to dealing with people which I really enjoy. (No it)
I will plan lessons according to your needs, level and desires and I’ll correct your mistakes throughout the lesson. I can help you with your pronunciation, vocabulary, expressions and grammar.
If you are intermediate or advanced student, we’ll focus on your needs based on our conversations. Speaking is the most difficult goal to achieve and you’ll talk with me without any pressure. Step by step, we'll improve your ability to speak naturally.
If you are an absolute beginner, I can also help you as I have already helped some students in their first contact with Spanish.
I like to give homework after the class, it may vary depending on the subjects you learnt during the lesson and on the time you have to study on your own.
I’ll do my best in helping you to improve your Spanish.0 votedJune 10, 20171Sentences - "drop a hint / hints (+ about)" and "fair enough"

Hi!, I want to write about my last vacation. I went to Ecuador for two weeks. When I arrived in Guayaquil, I was surprised by the weather because it was very wet!. First I took a cab and I asked to the driver where I could find hotels. He gave me some places and then he left me in a street full of hotels. Finally I found one that was cheap and nice :) After I unpacked my suitcase I walked close to the hotel in order to find a supermarket and to get to know the city. I visited a lot of places. I went to Baños, Quito, Macas and Montañita. The city that I loved was Montañita because there are a lot of bars and restaurants. I stayed there for 4 days and I ate a lot of shrimps. They are HUGE.
I really enjoyed my last vacation and I want to go again :)Interesting essay. Watch the run on sentences.

“Brazil Avenue” is a Brazilian primetime soap opera created by João Emanuel Carneiro. It was released in 2012. I am not very interested in soap operas but I like some. In Latin America, soap operas are very common. You can watch a lot of them on TV. Normally, women are more interested in watching these kind of things. I saw this soap opera on internet for the first time. I was surfing on the web looking for something interesting. I don’t remember why this one called my attention. I decided to look at the first episode and I continued watching the whole story. Finally, I ended up loving the characters and the story.
The plot of “Brazil Avenue” is about a little girl named Rita who wants to find justice in her life. Her life becomes a tragedy when her stepmother tries to steal to her father. Unfortunately, her father dies in a car accident and she ends up living with her terrible stepmother. Eventually her stepmother named Carminha sends her to live in a landfill. Fortunately she is adopted by an Argentinian family and she can survive and live in a better place. But she never forgets to the woman who destroyed her childhood and life. When she is an adult she decides to return to Brazil to find justice to her dead father and her. I like this soap opera because of the complexity of the story.0 votedOctober 26, 20160LIfe's too short
I´m reading a book entitled Life´s too short. Thinking about these stories, I realize that you should enjoy every moment in your life. You must surround yourself with your best friends. You shouldn´t waste your time; it is too valuable to waste on trivialities.
If you are thinking about changing something in your life, do it. If you want to learn other languages, do it. Do not let life pass you by doing nothing; it is too short.
In fact you may need two lives to learn English :-)0 votedOctober 11, 20161Cinema: A great invention
Cine is between art and entertainment, and is one of my favourite human creations. At the beginning it was something more mechanical but then we transformed it in something magical. We use it to entertain ourselves and also we use it to reflect on life. We have found a balance among these two areas, so that when we watch a movie, we enjoy and think at the same time. Because of we are creative animals, we have Invented this marvellous activity that involves Many different kinds of works which are all mixed in an awesome way. Nowadays, it is a millionaire industry that has created hundreds of thousands of jobs.
I am not an expert in cine but I love watching movies. I like movies that make me think about different topics and show me something that I have never noticed before. Also I like movies that only entertain me. I am big fan of Woody Allen’s films. Mostly, I like action, comedy and dramatic movies. I don’t like terror movies because they don't make sense for me. I watch more American movies and some European movies, because they produce the most, and they are good at. In my country we cannot produce many movies and the quality is not so good, therefore I have seen very few Peruvian movies. I think that cinema is a space where we can show our more deep feelings in helpful way.0 votedAugust 8, 20161Life after death
By losing a close person forever, life becomes strange; it feels like you are not supposed to live, as though you should die as well. When you wake up every morning and you realize that he doesn't exist any more, you feel the same moment's sorrow as when you first learned about it. My thoughts go out to all who mourn their beloved ones; be strong: this is the other side of life. Unfortunately we all have to see it….and we have to face it bravely.Yes, this is good as it is but I made a few changes because I think I know what you are trying to say; I just lost my father. Stay strong.
