About Me

italki teacher since Apr 9, 2014

My two biggest passions in life are languages and psychology. Because of that, travelling and meeting people are very interesting to me. I have visited just a few countries (Canada, Argentina and Italy) and I never came back home being the same person. Learning from other cultures is a very enriching experience. I am very dedicated to my student's progress and I make an effort to push my students to develop in a very interactive and fun way. I am very open to whatever material or focus the students may have. I profoundly believe that having fun is the best way of learning and my lessons are a reflection of that philosophy. My lessons, in terms of activities, are normally divided in two parts, one will cover structures and expressions in this part I may focus on specific structures or I may focus on a number of expresions in order to develop an argumntative line. This is particularly useful for people who have studied the language and they now need to focus on details of expressions. In terms of theory, my lessons are based on Neuro-Linguistic Programming and advanced teaching and learning techniques. I will provide ample information on how students may improve the efficiency of their study sessions.

Had a great first lesson with Mario. He explained to me his processes that he implements himself to learn languages in a logical an well through out manner. I am looking forward to learning more :) Thanks Mario!

Mario is a very smart and patient teacher. His English is really good, which enables him to explain things very clearly. He has the ability to see what you are having problems with and then he offers positive critique to allow you to better your language skills. Perhaps his best quality is his honesty. He gives you an honest opinion based off what he thinks will help you learn the most efficiently. Very good lesson. I would recommend anyone looking for a teacher to connect with Mario for a lesson

Mario was clear about his process. I have learned a lot already in my trial lesson, both Spanish and learning techniques. Very happy with my lesson.

Mario, presents an excellent understanding and advice about language learning methodology. More than just someone, who speaks Spanish and has an interest in helping others, he appears to have a serious passion for language learning and teaching.
