I have a flexible approach. If you are already taking a course and need some help, if you want to start at a basic level I can teach you, if you want to practice conversation and listening skills, if you need help with translations English-Spanish-English, if you want advanced support with specific topics, etc. I can go to your place in London, Ontario (evenings or weekends) or online (via Skype or Web Conference).
I also use some online tools that will facilitate the learning process.
I can provide some study materials or can follow the ones you may have.
