About Julio Rolando

I am a recent graduate from the University of Toronto. I obtained my Honors Bachelor of Arts with Distinction with a major in Linguistics and a double minor in Spanish and French. In my linguistics program, I focused on Second Language Acquisition and Second Language Pedagogy. Through these courses, I learned theories that improved my teaching methodologies. In my Spanish program, I achieved high marks (A) in both the 300 and 400-level Spanish Language courses which focused on the grammar of Spanish. In high school, where my Spanish Language journey began, I learned through the methodology that I teach with today, TPRS. I believe in its efficacy and usefulness, especially compared with the more traditional methods that are commonly used. I have only learned Spanish through this methodology and four languages through the traditional method. I can attest to the fact that not only does the TPRS method better prepare you for real life situations, but that it is less demanding on its students. When I reached my senior year of high school, I took IB Spanish SL, where I achieved a 7. I am familiar with the system and what is required to obtain a high mark in the course. All of my IB students that I have tutored in the past five years have earned, at the minimum, a 6 as their final mark. I have a lot of experience in language learning and teaching. If you are interested in knowing more, please feel free to reach out!

About the lesson

For those who are interested in learning Spanish: - I use a communicative method called Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling - This methodology uses storytelling and comprehensive input to build your Spanish language level - No need to memorize grammar or vocabulary! - My lessons are meant to provide Spanish that favors communication over perfection - You will make mistakes, but that is ok! - Recommended at least 4 hours a week. Dedication to time is a very crucial part of this methodology For those who are looking for a tutor for school, especially IB Spanish: - I use a more traditional method that encompasses grammar and vocabulary - I can assist in homework or assignments - For IB students, I recommend at least two hours a week - For non-IB students, I recommend at least one hour a week
