Hi!
I´m Karen Atondo from Mexico. I love traveling, meeting new people and sharing my experience with them. I´m an architect but learning new things and teaching are my passions.
I´ve been teaching for a long time, almost 12 years. At first I helped my mom at her math school. Then, when I was in high school I did some math and English private tutoring. In case of languages, I´ve been teaching English and Japanese since 2010, after participating in a long term exchange program in Japan. When I came back to Mexico and I started teaching English to kids in private language schools, then Japanese to young adults and finally Spanish to foreigners who live in Mexico.
Last year I studied a semester abroad in an important university in South Korea, during that time I taught English and Spanish to local people, it was a very gratifying experience.
I know how hard it can be to learn a new language, so I always encourage my students to keep their motivation: congratulating them, giving them feedback about their improves or their areas of oppotunity.
About my teaching style, basically I divide it in 3 steps:
¡Nos vemos en clase!
