Mayte Martínez
@maytemartnez
Cultural manager and Spanish teacher with international experience.
What I'm looking for
As a dedicated Spanish as a Foreign Language Teacher and Cultural Manager, I bring a wealth of international experience and a passion for innovative teaching methodologies. My journey has taken me from the classrooms of Granada to cultural institutions in Madrid and beyond, where I have honed my skills in adapting educational content to diverse cultural and linguistic contexts.
With a strong proficiency in Chinese (HSK5) and a deep appreciation for Chinese culture, I have successfully integrated immersive experiences into my teaching. My role as a Cultural Activities Coordinator at Instituto San Fernando de la Lengua Española has allowed me to design engaging didactic materials and organize cultural activities that promote language immersion. I am also an officially accredited Tourist Guide of Andalusia, which complements my teaching by providing students with a rich cultural perspective.
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated my ability to manage projects effectively, as seen during my internships at the Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza and Instituto Cervantes, where I supported event organization and digital content creation. I am committed to fostering intercultural communication and utilizing digital tools to enhance the learning experience for my students.
