Daniela Lucia Martinez Barbosa

Experience:

English Teacher with more than 12 years of experience in the field, specialized in pedagogy and teaching. 

I've taught in private institutions in my country—Colombia—as an English instructor and tutor. Along my career, I've had the opportunity to teach children, teens, and adults from varied backgrounds and learning styles, which has allowed me to adapt my teaching to the students' needs and my employer's requirements.

Regarding teaching, I'm passionate about making every learning experience, an awakening one; I believe that consistency is key to achieve whatever goal you have set your eyes on. Therefore, inspiring your pupils to go after their goals with passion, dedication, and a consistent mindset is key to make a change.

Teaching Philosophy:

 ‘When one teaches, two learn.’ –Robert Heinlein

Studies:

After getting a Bachelor's Degree in English Teaching in 2014 at UIS (Universidad Industrial de Santander), I got a diploma in Spanish Language Teaching as a Foreign language in 2015 at Instituto Caro y Cuervo; and then, I specialized in Pedagody and Teaching in 2019.
