Joan Martínez Botí

I believe that I could be without a doubt a good teacher for your school. Here are some of the reasons why:

- I have two 4-year university degrees: Primary School Teacher and Translation and Interpreting. In addition, I have academic training in the field of ELE (Spanish as a foreign language), as well as in English (Capability of Teaching in English) as you can quickly see in my CV.

- As you realised, I have experience as a teacher. I have lived in England, Switzerland, Italy and Spain, and I have had the great honour and privilege of working in international schools with students from all over the world, with different needs, abilities, social backgrounds, cultures and ages (from 2 years old up to adults). Not only as a Spanish teacher, but also teaching English, French, Italian and Catalan.

- I speak 5 languages and I am currently studying 3 more, so my passion for languages and cultures is one of my greatest strengths, as I can pass on by my own example all my experience and motivation to learn a foreign language, in this case, Spanish and English. This usually leads to an ideal learning environment and a very good relationship and connection with the students. Also, my linguistic knowledge combined with my experience over the years gives me many advantages at a teaching level, as I can understand and anticipate my students' mistakes based on their mother tongue, their culture, their reasoning and their logic. Moreover, when I was in the UK, I had a lot of Polish students, so it wouldn't be my first experience with them.

- My personality and resilience push me to be a great professional and to always bring out the best of myself. I have never had any problems with anyone and I have always received very positive feedback from my superiors. Please find enclosed some work references.

Finally, I thank you in advance for your time and I look forward to having our interview with great enthusiasm and interest. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
