David Aponte Castro

Professional Teaching Profile – English/Spanish and Social Sciences Educator

As a bilingual educator with a background in Political Science and over fifteen years of experience in teaching and academic consulting, I bring an interdisciplinary and human-centered approach to English or Spanish learning. My experience as a university lecturer in Colombia and as a consultant in international cooperation has strengthened my ability to connect language learning with critical thinking, global citizenship, and communication skills.

I design engaging English or Spanish lessons that go beyond grammar, helping students explore real-world topics—such as culture, democracy, and leadership—while building confidence and fluency. I am passionate about creating inclusive and reflective learning environments where students feel motivated to express themselves, collaborate, and learn from one another.

Currently, I am pursuing a PhD in Psychology, which deepens my understanding of empathy, dialogue, and motivation in the education experience.
