Rosa Ostos

I am a Spanish teacher at Cervantes Institute of London. I was also lecturer in the Department of Spanish at the Faculty of Foreign Languages and Civilizations at Nanterre University (France). As a Spanish teacher, I used a range of course books and materials, along with a variety of audio-visual aids, to encourage students to communicate with each other using the structures and vocabulary they've learnt and to improve the four basic language skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing. A strong emphasis was placed on learning culture as an important part of language acquisition; in that sense literature plays a fundamental role.
