Teacher in all Spanish courses and Head of Marketing and Promotion at TANDEM MADRID, specialised in the training of Spanish language teachers at TANDEM.
Hello,
My name is Susana Molina, and I have been teaching Spanish since 2003.
I am a lucky person because I work in something I am passionate about, and for me, it is a pleasure to teach and work with all kinds of projects that aim to promote Spanish and interculturality. My students learn, but I also learn with them.
I started teaching in Galway, Ireland, where I went after graduating in Spanish Philology. After 5 years of Irish life, I came back to Madrid (my city) to do my Master’s degree in ELE and to dive into this profession. Since then, I have had great experiences as a teacher at Enforex, Alcalingua, Universidad Juan Carlos I, and Instituto Hemingway. And I have collaborated in several editorial projects with Edinumen.
But the place where I have developed most of my career and grown the most as a professional is TANDEM Madrid, where I currently work. Here I have been a teacher, head of studies, responsible for language exchanges, and a teacher trainer. Since the beginning of 2022, I have been dedicated to the promotion of courses and group management, and every day I continue to learn and enjoy what I do with great enthusiasm.
