About Guillermo
I was born in Venezuela. My parents were Spaniards. I grew up half of my youth in Spain, and the other half in Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, the Dominican Republic, and a few other places.
I came to the United States at the age of 22 and went to Ohio Wesleyan University to learn English. They had the best ESL program. In three months, I went from beginner level to pass the TOEFL and the Michigan tests. I learned very fast by mixing their great methods with my own. As an industrial engineering student my interest in methods and efficiency led me to one of the most enjoyable successes: Going from not knowing how to ask for the bathroom to having conversations and taking Engineering classes successfully was fantastic.
I graduated with a BS in applied math from The Ohio State University, but I soon realized I was a person's person, not a machine or lab lover. Thus, I switched my life direction and joined the Florida International University Developmental Psychology PhD program, where I became a certified behavior analyst. I went to work with special populations. My job consisted of training parents, teachers, and experts to improve their work with their clients. I developed other programs with normal populations, such as teaching insecure children to thrive socially, and help deaf adults communicate with developmentally delayed adults.
For many years I developed educational and physical programs for special populations. Each program was uniquely adapted to the skills and limitations of the trainee, as well as the skills and limitations of the trainers. The trainers were teachers, speech therapists, physical therapists, musicians, and karate and yoga instructors. Some of these trainers were very high-level in their fields, like Jimmy Wong, three time World Champion in karate.
I always adapt to my student's needs to offer them what is best for them.

English
My training consists of finding the student's learning weaknesses and strengths, eliminating the weaknesses and bolstering the strengths. I eliminate learning weaknesses by assisting the learner to develop the sub-skills needed for progress.
While the focus of the learning is to advance quickly in using the language, real advancement requires having a basic understanding of the language's grammar. Learning the grammar of a second language is also very useful to review our mother language's grammar. Speaking grammatically always helps us sound very educated. There is no disadvantage to understanding the grammar that creates the language we want to speak.
Additionally I have special little tricks that help in picking up new words. For instance, buy a pocket English-Spanish dictionary that really will fit in a pocket. Or download an app to your phone. Buy a small pocket notebook too. Then, every time you are having a conversation in English, write any word from the conversation that you would like to know in Spanish. As soon as you have time, look for the word in the dictionary. Open google, and request the pronunciation for that word. Repeat it a few times, and do your best to write how you think it is pronounced in your little book next to the English and the Spanish spellings. Do this with no less than 5 words per day.
I have a great deal to offer, so hire me as your Spanish tutor and soon you'll be enjoying speaking and writing in Spanish.
Recommendations

I am a retired Broward County principal. After my retirement I worked for four years with Guillermo on a Home schooling team for a young autistic young adult. Guillermo coordinated the program for many years before I began. He gives very clear concise instructions and made all his lessons applicable to life skills for our student. Our student could occasionally have violent outburst which were immediately shortened with Guillermo’s excellent behavior analyst skills. Guillermo has a warm and friendly personality and extremely positive with encouraging compliments. Children respond well to these teacher traits. He gives children confidence with his praise. I recommend Guillermo without hesitation. If you have any questions please feel free to call me. 954830 7974. Mary Lou Ridge
I have known Guillermo for many years. i can say that he is an
extraordinary professional I have seen how he helped a child (who is now 30 years old) who did not speak, and walk..Thanks to Guillermo , the boy speak and write perfect English and Spanish, he walk very well. The Doctors at Mayo Clinic couldn't believe how Guillermo was able to get the boy through and obviously congratulated him on the wonderful techniques he used on him.
Guillermo has been my teacher, what i can say about him is
that he is an excellent professional. He has wonderful learning techniques, I am very proud to have had him as a teacher. Gracias por todo Guille. Leo y escribo perfecto el español . :)I had the pleasure of working with Guillermo Ramon for over 18 years. Guillermo has the ability to make rational decisions under pressure, while always maintaining an unsurpassed level of ethics. No one took on more responsibilities and produced outstanding results of the highest caliber. Trusting, compassionate, and driven are the words that come to mind when trying to express his traits. FromThe first day on the job Guilermo will quickly become a visible asset to your staff, and someone that upholds the mission of your company to the highest level.

co-worker 2001-~2019Guillermo Ramon has the unique ability to find the real sources of what causes a lack of progress in learning and then to unerringly navigate the learner through the skillset that brings the learner to achievement. Time and time again, I have seen Guillermo, my husband, not only make complicated subjects easy to understand, but make the learner more confident in their ability to learn what they desire. If you hire Guillermo as your Spanish tutor, you will have enormous fun as you master Spanish.
