About your english tutor

’’Hello! My name is Sol, and I am an English teacher currently completing my bachelor’s degree Sociology. I have worked as a teacher since I was sixteen years old, and I am passionate about it. I have studied and applied many methods of teaching and am confident teaching almost any kind of student. I am always perfecting not only my language proficiency but also the educational theories I follow. I have worked with kids, teenagers, and adults from all over the world, starting in Latin America and all the way to South Korea and China, so language really isn’t a barrier for me! I was also part of two different organizations, one is a sociolegal clinic that works with migrants, focused on fighting for their rights, helping them with everything regarding documentation and legal work, but also with trying to raise awareness about their specific struggles. I worked mostly with women and the impact that the covid-19 pandemic had on them. The other organization I am part of is called ‘’Soy NosotrasI’m looking forward to meeting you and learning together. and it is a barrial (neighbourhood) organization that works with local women of the community to seek concrete solutions to everyday problems that might not seem to be directly to connected with gender at first sight but, with a deeper insight, one can see how every different oppression intersects with one another, therefore the need to fight for an intersectional feminism. I am a volunteer at these organizations. I have participated as an assistant-professor in three different courses: Classic Sociological Theory, Statistics and Feminist Philosophy. I work well with students and find teaching to be one of the most fulfilling roles I’ve had.

English classes overview

My tutoring sessions are highly aligned with the Communicative Language (CLT) approach. I put emphasis in that the goal of learning a language (or any other kind of learning) should be focused on competence, in the case of language it would be communicative competence, with the aim of making meaningful communication and language use the focus of all classes. The same goes for other kinds of topics, I want you to feel qualified to take a step in the real world while being able to understand the topic on a different, more theoric way, as well. I guide my teaching under the Education for Liberation spectrum, as I am interested in communication and learning being a two-way road.
