Paola Padulla

In my English lessons, I combine structured with flexibility, tailoring each class to the students age level, and individual goals. I primarily use materials from the Cambridge course books, which provides a solid foundation in grammar, vocabulary, and communication skills. Each lesson lasts 60 minutes, but that can also be adjusted to your needs and availability. In addition to general English, I also help students prepare for English proficiency exams, such as Cambridge, or TOEFL, and support them as a tutor for academic coursework; from writing assistance to understanding academic texts. Conversational-focused lesson are also available.

For children I designed a lesson to be more playful, interactive, using songs, games, and creative activities - while still giving assessments at the end of each quarter or semester to track progress.

For adult learners, I balanced textbook work with personalized conversation practice. We cover every daily topics and also focus on specific needs, such as speaking confidently in the work place, discussing political or cultural topics, or preparing to move abroad.

My goal is to create a comfortable and motivating learning environment, where every student can improve wether for school work or personal growth. I have over a year of experience teaching English to students of various ages and backgrounds. My teaching approach is informed by my academic studies in psychology, as well as my volunteer work as translator, which deepened my passion for languages and effective communication. I am committed to helping students build confidence in their English skills through personalized lessons that focused on practical use in real life situations.
