Does anyone L5/6+ need a tutor recommendation?
I am going to put level 5/6+ in the title, but you're going to see my flair and potentially question me. I was told recently in here to stop apologizing if I'm not a "purist" to the method...my ADHD simply will not allow me to stay on one single method for a long time or my interest dies. So I am combining DS with traditional learning via a CI-based online tutor from Colombia. My tutor is very personal and is keeping his number of students to around 15 total so that he has plenty of time for them throughout each week. He is trying to organically grow his academy, so I am making a post here since I THINK reading the rules that this is okay? Please let me know if not!
My Spanish tutor lives in Bogota, Colombia, and part of my learning through DS and Conversational CI with Juan actually lead me to fly down there and visit for a week! We spent 3 days in rural jungle (Sasaima/Villegta) and then spent 4 days in the city. I spoke more than I ever have before, and I learned an insane amount from immersion. Juan wishes to do this full time and quit his other day job since his passion is teaching (also nature education!) So, I wanted to post on here and ask if anyone else is looking for a conversational teacher once they feel they are at that level? It has been a beautiful jouney for me mixing this with DS, and since Juan believes mostly in CI as the best method of learning...it's been very complementary.
I do not, under any circumstances, want to get in trouble for this post if this violates anything...I am genuinely offering for those looking to get into conversation practice to have a high-quality teacher that I can personally vouch for - and they are PRO-CI instead of against it. I feel this is not subject to Rule 8, since I am not promoting myself at all, just promoting a tutor whom I have worked with for over a year now and HIGHLY, highly recommend. You can check my post/comment history...I promise I am real :)
Edit: Also, if you have any questions - ask away! Like I said, just helping a quality teacher and friend (and any DS learners looking for additional assistance!)...zero obligation here.
