EFL teacher Spain

Apr 2015 - Present
I am an EFL teacher who lives and works in one of the most beautiful cities in Spain. Everything in Asturias has been a learning experience. I have met many wonderful people. I teach young learners, teenagers, adults, FCE, CAE and Business English. Telephonic classes, Skype classes, face-to-face classes (groups and individuals), I do them all. Being a teacher means being a student, you never stop learning. I am an EFL teacher who lives and works in one of the most beautiful cities in Spain.
