About Marco
About Me
Hello! I'm originally from Quito, Ecuador—a beautiful city nestled in the Andes. Growing up, I spoke both Spanish and French, and my passion for languages has only grown since then. I also learned Portuguese at the age of 14, which introduced me to the Brazilian culture. After my undergrad in Art History, in Ecuador, I studied a master’s in Portuguese and Brazilian culture in Curtiba, a city in the south of Brazil.
I also hold a PhD in Spanish and Portuguese Studies, from the United States. My academic work has focused on understanding the intersections of language, culture, and literature. During my master's and PhD, I explored the bilingualism of Latin American writers who lived in France, Paris particularly, during the turn of the century. My work examines how bilingual writers (Portuguese-French or Spanish French) experienced navigating cultural traditions and how it affected their reception in the national literary canons.
As a language tutor, I draw from a diverse range of experiences: from teaching Spanish, Portuguese, and literature to undergraduate students, to working as a translator in Spanish, Portuguese, and French. I also spent several years working in an art gallery and as a style redactor at a journal in Quito, where I refined my skills in writing, editing, and ensuring clarity and coherence in texts. These roles have helped me develop a unique perspective on cultural expression and storytelling.
Approach to Language Learning
I believe there isn't a one-size-fits-all method for language learning. Some students thrive on structured, grammar-based approaches, while others benefit more from immersive, playful methods that engage with culture, music, and conversation. My goal is to tailor each lesson to fit your learning style and interests, ensuring you not only learn the language but also enjoy the journey.
Personal Interests
When I'm not teaching or delving into literary research, you'll find me cheering for my favorite soccer teams (siuuuu!), strumming my guitar, or out on the road with my bike and my dog. I'm also a big coffee enthusiast and love exploring different brews. We can chat about anything—from art and literature to sports and music. Let's make language learning fun and engaging!
