Santi
职业: First Leap China
English Language Instruction
Teaching classroom English to students aged between 15-21
兴趣: Asking where I am from is a tricky question for me. I was born to a British mother and a Spanish father, therefore I had a rather unique upbringing—splitting my time between Liverpool and Sheffield in the UK, and Barcelona in Catalonia within Spain. This experience gave me the best of both worlds: a rich cultural background and fluency in English and Catalan, as well as some intermediate Castilian (traditional Spanish) skills.
While I feel most at home in Barcelona, my personality and sense of humour are definitely British. I also hold both British and Spanish passports, which has its perks!
In addition to growing up between two countries, I’ve spent large parts of the year living in other corners of the world—particularly in South America (Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico) and East Asia (Japan, Thailand, Cambodia). Over the past decade, I’ve been fortunate enough to teach English both in-person and online. For the past six years, I’ve mainly focused on online teaching, but I also taught English and history in Spain, China (Beijing and Dongguan) and Thailand (Bangkok).
I’m an avid non-fiction reader and a daily consumer of news articles, which allows me to dive deep into a wide range of topics—history, politics, economics, food, travel, music, hip-hop culture, sports (especially football, boxing, and MMA), movies, TV, fitness, psychology, relationships… you name it.
So whatever you're into, just let me know—I'm always up for a good conversation!

兴趣: I was born in St. Louis, Missouri, USA, and grew up in Washington State where I acquired a love for hiking, running, swimming and motorcycle riding in the many mountain trails, rivers and ocean areas. I love listening to different kinds of music, from rock to classical, and I've played the violin since I was nine. I'm also a big fan of NBA basketball and MLB baseball.
When I returned to St. Louis to start college study, I met many international students from several universities when volunteering as an English tutor. Since then, I have loved traveling overseas to other countries and learning other cultures, including the Philippines where my wife is from.
I've traveled throughout Europe and worked teaching English in five countries in parts of Asia and Arabia. After working for 15 years in my last full-time job, teaching academic English in a college, I retired.
However, my interest in traveling, meeting and working with foreign students remains. I have a strong desire to help others improve their lives by passing on my English skills. I hope this can include you! :-)
