In my classes, I aim to make lessons engaging, interactive, and relevant to the students’ lives. I believe that when students can relate to what they’re learning, whether it’s grammar, vocabulary, or new concepts, they’re more likely to retain it. Lessons are built dependent of the student's language learning goals and needs.

• Interactive, engaging lessons tailored to your level and goals
• Clear explanations with practical, real-world examples
• A mix of speaking, listening, reading, and writing activities
• Conversational practice to build confidence and fluency
• Digital resources, exercises, and activities for practice outside class
• A friendly, encouraging environment where questions are always welcome

I teach German and English to Spanish-speaking learners, supporting both children and adults. I work with adult beginners preparing for A1 exams and offer conversational classes tailored to their goals. Additionally, I coordinated English and volunteer programs for an NGO in Huanchaco, delivering English, maths, and environmental education to children aged 5–12, teaching at a local primary school, and facilitating community English classes for learners of all ages.

I hold a master’s degree in Materials Science and Engineering and have worked in both research and industry fields, investigating the integrity of metals and polymers. I took a special interest in metal additive manufacturing (3D printing), as well as developing machine learning algorithms. In my role as a train maintenance engineer, I led complex projects and developed digital tools. These experiences developed strong communication, organization, and leadership skills. I also volunteered in STEM outreach, delivering talks to inspire young women in engineering. These experiences have strengthened my ability to explain complex ideas clearly and support diverse learners.
