My name is Maria X. and I am a Colombian writer with a major in Literature and a minor in Arts from Universidad de los Andes in Bogotá, Colombia and an MFA in Screenwriting from DePaul University. I have been a Spanish teacher for both elementary school students and College students. I have also been a tutor for people all levels (beginner, intermediate and advanced).
I love to teach the basic grammar within a cultural context. I strongly believe a language is not only a set of rules but the window to learn the history of different cultures. For this reason I try to include in my routine materials that talk about the hispanic world in general. My classes are divided into two sessions, one that is focused on grammar, and a second one focused on conversation/listening skills.
