“My daughters loved their class and their teacher Tamara!”
YOUR COURSE TUTOR
Tamara Melero Antúnez
Tamara is from Castilla y Leon, Spain. Her father is Spanish and her mother is from Honduras, Central America. This has given her a wide cultural influence from both continents. She is currently living in Australia, teaching adults and children face to face in her school at Bellingen and online too. She is also closely involved with homeschooling families exploring alternative methods of education.
Since living in Australia for the last 7 years she has become even more passionate about her roots and has begun to collaborate in different cultural festivals around Sydney, in particular the Latin American Festival in Bondi. It was when a deep interest in teaching and promoting the Spanish language and Hispanic Culture strongly arose. Firstly, through her own radio program which she called “la escuela”. Later on she trained as a Spanish language teacher at the Instituto Cervantes in Sydney.
She feels strongly that language has to be taught from rich cultural values and experiences. Hispanic rituals and traditions are wide known and celebrated, such as their art and music, which she is deeply connected with and constantly reviewing. She applies it in her classes with creativity, freedom and enjoyment. At present, the teaching for her is a bridge between Australia, Spain and Latin America, which allows her to be connected by sharing her heritage. The learning of a new language is an awakening which is vital for higher cognitive development and flexibility in thinking. Social and cultural possibilities are also expanded immensely.
As a new mother she is investigating and putting into practice with my daughter the bilingual approach. She is also excited to offer new Spanish playgroups and experiences in 2024!
