Maria Carrillo

I offer Spanish, German, and Psychology lessons. I am a native Spanish speaker and have experience working as a TA and learning support tutor in IB Schools (Anglo Colombian School and Gimnasio los Portales, Bogotá), as a school Psychologist, as a counsellor, and as a mindfulness therapist. I learned German while living in Germany for 4 years since I was 7 years old, and studied at German schools in Germany and Colombia until graduation. I worked as an independent German tutor for 3 years.

With my background in psychology, I have a solid understanding of how people learn, what keeps them motivated, and how they develop new language skills. Having both learned and taught two foreign languages, I know effective strategies to support you throughout your learning journey. I like to identify your specific motivations and needs, and then work together with you to practise, fill any gaps, and find the learning strategies that suit you best.

Learning something new and developing yourself professionally can sometimes be stressful, but it is more effective when you are feeling well and have some clarity of mind. As part of my work, if needed, I can offer tools and strategies for stress management that will help you improve your learning and your well-being at work.

I am a Psychologist with experience in education, tutoring, mindfulness, and counselling. I aim to promote well-being, professional growth, and quality education. Skilled in workshop design, execution, and facilitation. If you need any classes for your company, I can offer you workshops in stress management and mindfulness.
