I like to view the classroom as a place for exchanging knowledge with the students in a friendly atmosphere that encourages the students to learn English in a desirable environment away from the imposition of the traditional teaching settings.
My teaching philosophy aims at teaching English through developing critical thinking about the topic by viewing all possible aspects of it. Multiple results of this strategy include increasing knowledge of the world and discovering more about the students’ own personal characteristics, in addition to improving their English and developing creative thinking. One good technique to achieve these objectives is working on building students’ growth mindset. This can be maintained through emphasizing challenges that teach students to search for new knowledge and explore more insights.

I have a teaching experience of ESL of more than 24 years in Cuba. I have taught in colleges, for students with different academic interests, and for graduates who wanted to improve their proficiency in this language. I have also trained teachers of ESL at the language school where I worked.

In my teaching I use a communicative approach with meaningful exchanges but with a solid foundation of the formal aspects of the language too, so that students can move forward safely. I pay attention to individual differences so that each student can progress at his/her own pace with ease.

At intermediate and advanced levels I always favor the use of meaningful discussions and debate about updated issues, so that students learn how to express their opinions and ideas properly in different contexts.

I believe in creating a friendly atmosphere with meaningful human exchanges throughout my lessons.
