I am a Venezuelan born journalist and videographer. I have always tried to teach on the side because I enjoy it. Back in my country I was an English teacher, so I understand a lot about grammars and how the English language works.

Grammars can be abstract, but when you apply them to real situations you understand and learn a lot!
