Rubén R.
Private tutor in Adelaide, Australia
Education
Masters in Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language - (University of Granada, Spain) B.A. Linguistics | M.A. Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language | M.A. Cross‐Cultural Communication & International Relations My name is Rubén Reguera (Jerez de la Frontera, Spain, 1982). I am a linguist, philologist, teacher, and tutor. My Master’s degree is in Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language and my specialist teaching fields are in Linguistics, Second Language Acquisition, Business Spanish, and Cross‐Cultural Communication. As a linguist, I specialize in communication, understanding how language works, and in teaching the structure, logic, and nuances of Spanish as a second language. My Spanish tutorials are for students of all levels. I tutor Spanish both online and in-person to students from all over the world who are committed to learning the highest quality Spanish – for whatever reason – and who are struggling to meet their language goals through work, school, university or other external classes. Most students find learning online better value, more flexible, and more convenient than other ways of learning Spanish. The flexible scheduling set up can help them balance family and work life while they learn. By learning online, students get the one-to-one interaction with a professional, native-speaking Spanish teacher, and they can access classes from wherever they are in the world, at almost any time. It is the modern way to learn and all branches of education are increasingly benefiting from being connected 24/7. If you live in Adelaide (Australia), I also offer in-person one-on-one, paired and small group tutorials for those students living in the Adelaide area. I also provide a range of transcription, subtitle, and audio recording services in Spanish. Using a student‐centered methodology developed through years of teaching experience at university level in Spain (Universidad de Granada) and in Australia (Flinders University, PCE University of Adelaide, UniSA), my lessons help language learners with Spanish in their professional lives, for conversation practice, for preparing for exams, for traveling, and for improving their general knowledge and use of the language.
