Hello there!
My name is Karen Lara, a bilingual teacher from McHenry County, Illinois, United States. I’ve been living in Galicia, Spain since 2007 where I have worked as an English teacher since 2010 with companies, academies, and private students for conversational English, preparing official exams, job interviews, Masters Degree admission interviews, Visa interviews, Business English, and much more, at all levels. I also have experience in translations since 2019 with CV, LinkedIn profiles, recommendation and presentation letters, overall general translations.
Currently, I work with teens and adults levels A1 to C2. Since 2017 I have dedicated exclusively to online learning on different video conference platforms such as Google Meet and Zoom for easier access to knowledge as nowadays with such busy lives, it’s more practical to have an online lesson than face-to-face.
I’ve obtained the following certifications to allow me to teach:
-Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) / Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) degree.
-Enseñanza Español como lengua extranjera (ELE)
-Teaching training for E-Learning
-Teaching Business English
-Teaching Online & 1:1 English
-Content creation and teaching resources in Moodle
-Intermediate-Advanced Informatics
-Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) workshop
I also volunteered 2 summers in the Urban Camp of Vigo for children from 8 to 16, where I had the challenge of monitoring kids with difficult backgrounds and learning disabilities.
If you are still hesitant to book a class, contact me for more information as well as my reviews.
