Hello! I’m Juan José, a Systems and Computer Engineering student and a Foreign Languages student (English, French and Portuguese) from Colombia. I teach maths to infant, primary and secondary school students, and English to school students and learners up to B2 level.
How my lessons work: we start by talking about what the student needs, whether that’s catching up, building confidence or preparing for a test. Then I plan each lesson around a clear goal. I explain every topic in small, simple steps, using examples, drawings and practice exercises, and I check understanding before moving on. If an idea doesn’t click, I explain it in a different way until it does. For younger children I keep lessons short, playful and full of activities, and I’m always patient.
My background helps me teach in a clear and logical way. Engineering has trained me to solve problems step by step, and my language studies, which focus on education and translation, have taught me how to explain ideas clearly. I have taught English and Portuguese topics to my classmates many times, answering their questions until everything was clear.
Motivation matters more to me than age or level. I adapt each lesson to the student’s pace and goals, and I’m happy to share progress and tips with parents. I also love football, video games and table tennis, so I’m always happy to connect with students through the things they enjoy.
All my lessons are online, with flexible hours that suit UK after-school times. Tell me what you’re looking for, and let’s start with a short trial class to see if we’re a good fit!
