    About me

    Translated

    Show original

    Hi, my name is Dolors, and I'm from Barcelona. I've been an English teacher for over 30 years in schools and institutes around Barcelona. Now I'm living in Chicago because my husband is working here. I miss my job, and that's why I want to teach you Spanish; I'm sure we'll have a great time together. I have plenty of stories to share. Are you in?


    I have 36 years of teaching experience, 6 years with primary students and the rest with secondary students. I've also been a teacher trainer, helping teachers update their skills with new technologies. I prefer a communicative approach that encourages the need to speak the foreign language, but there also needs to be room for grammar and good pronunciation.


    Do you want to try a class? You can tell me about your goals, the time you have available, your hobbies, your knowledge of the language, and your priorities. I'm used to adapting to the needs of my students.

    Dolors is the best, honestly. She’s extremely committed to what she does, and all her lessons are well thought out. She always brings different activities that really help improve my learning. Normally I’d get bored with long theory or grammar practice, but with her it feels effortless, easy-going, and most importantly - productive!

    I have nothing but positive things to say about my sessions with Dolors! She is such a caring teacher and always takes the time to explain things clearly in a way that really makes sense. I leave each session feeling more comfortable speaking Spanish, and it is always something I truly look forward to. She is incredibly friendly and supportive, and I am so grateful to be learning from her!

    I really enjoyed the class and found the teaching method super effective, it's all about learning Spanish by talking, not just drilling grammar.
