When I do a course I teach Teachers. When I’m at school I learn from learners. Then, I teach Teachers what I learn from my learners. (T. Carlotta)
Please, if you are interested in any of my courses, do not hesitate to contact me. Some opinions of my students:
Highly practical, useful. Carlotta Teacher knows how to engage you. Her experiences are similar to your own problems in the classroom. I recommend her as your teacher of teachers.
Me ha encantado el curso por la actitud de la ponente hacia la enseñanza del inglés, entusiasta y realista a la vez. Nos ha dado ideas, recursos, experiencias profesionales… Gracias.
Carlotta is an incredible source of activities you can carry out in the classroom plus an outstanding speaker!
I really enjoyed Carlotta’s course. It’s not the typical theoretical one and she provides teachers with really practical ideas for activities and resources! Thank you for your enthusiasm! 🙂
Es genial cuando te encuentras maestros motivados y «locos» que desean compartir sus ideas. Gracias.
Carlotta engaged us from the very beginning. So useful and practical. Highly recommended!
