Hola!! Thanks for having a look at my bio ;-) A little bit about me: I was born in the North of Spain, in the Basque Country region, but I have lived and worked in many different countries, most of the time in the UK, first as a journalist and then as a qualified English and Spanish teacher. I now live in Northern Ireland, which I consider my second home ;-) I am very patient and enthusiastic and what I love most is helping others to learn my mother tongue, as I know that learning languages can change lives, as it happened to me. Throughout the years I have realised that this is possible for everyone, if they put the right amount of effort and they have someone behind guiding them. That's why I consider myself not just teacher, but also a "language coach" who understands the difficulties of learning a language (I speak 5 languages myself!! and I'm not saying it to show off, just to prove you that it's 100% possible!!!). As a certified neurolanguage coach and a teacher I will be showing you how our brain learns and how to make the language stick. Together we will be able to check your strengths, weaknesses and goals, so I can create an individualised plan just for you!! Soon you will start to feel more confident, you will have fun and you will see your improvement no matter where you are atm. I would love to show you that you can pass that exam with a great grade, that you can talk in Spanish when you go on holidays and that you can enjoy the Hispanic culture!! Síiii, es posible ;-) Please drop me a line to say "hola", if you want to know more about how I could help you and we can have a chat. I am really looking forward to meeting you. ¡Hasta la vista!!!! Mónica ;-)
