About Carolina

Bio

Hi, my name is Carolina. I’m originally from Colombia and I would love to help you learn either English or Spanish. Having studied several languages myself, I know what it’s like to learn a foreign language and what it takes to succeed. I have a university degree in Spanish and Foreign Languages (English and French). I have over nine years experience teaching at universities, private schools and I was teaching in North Carolina for two years in an Elementary school.

Hi, my name is Carolina. I’m originally from Colombia and I would love to help you learn either English or Spanish. Having studied several languages myself, I know what it’s like to learn a foreign language and what it takes to succeed. I have a university degree in Spanish and Foreign Languages (English and French). I have over nine years experience teaching at universities, private schools and I was teaching in North Carolina for two years in an Elementary school.

I adapt my lessons to your learning style; e.g., some people are visual learners while others learn best by hearing. I recommend my students to complete a test so we can both see what your preferred way of learning is.

My Specialties: Parent help - For any parent looking for lessons for their child, as I am a school teacher, I have a lot of experience teaching children and helping with their homework. High School/University Students - If you are currently studying English and need help with essays/assignments, I can help you organize your ideas to make the text clear and well structured. I speak fluent English and I can teach you not only the language, but techniques that will help you to learn quickly and to achieve the level you want.

I'm from Bogota, Colombia, which means I speak Spanish very clearly. My accent is especially good for beginner and elementary level students as not only will you be able to understand me, but you will also learn good pronunciation. It’s my goal that my students feel confident while speaking and learning Spanish. In the lessons, I match my speed and pronunciation to your level so you will always feel comfortable. I also make sure the lessons are interesting by tailoring them to suit your needs and interests.

I am an experienced elementary teacher. I have been a kindergarten teacher and I have experience teaching first and second grade, too.

Excellent Tutor Who is Warm and Caring

She was well-prepared for my seven-year-old son's very first tutoring lesson experience. She asked me questions about him so she can get a good understanding of my son's current level, his school's expectation and my goals for receiving tutoring service prior to the lesson and customized the lesson based on it. My son was a bit nervous at first as he didn't know what to expect but she opened the lesson with such warm welcome and introduction that my son quickly got more relaxed and ready to learn. Throughout the lesson, she was encouraging him warmly and that motivated him. Rainbow word list, rapid word chart, word search and sight word list were used during the lesson and she was so kind as to send them to me so that my son can work on that at home with me as homework. Carolina is an excellent tutor who is warm and caring, and knows her materials very well and how to work with children and parents!

Patient and very well prepared

Carolina remembers where we left off the week before, uncovers areas where more practice is needed, and makes good use of exercises and supplemental materials.

Learning was fun

My observations from the first class were the following: 1. She's patient and makes sure you know the material before moving on. 2. Has a sense of how you are progressing and can adapt to your learning speed. 3. Her occupation is a teacher and so she can apply this skill set easily.

Knowledgeable and very patient tutor.

Carolina is a very patient and expressive tutor. She utilizes both verbal and visual aids to make her points. She doesn't intimidate due to ones lack of knowledge as she meets you wherever you are in your learning curve.

Amazing Tutor

Carolina was AMAZING!!! She was so prepared and in depth about everything I wanted to accomplish. She even had a PowerPoint presentation for me about what I wanted to study. So professional, patient and sweet. She is a wonderful tutor and I feel so lucky to have found her!
