About Katrina Sabrina
Hello and welcome to my profile! :) I believe the combination of my education background, teaching experience and living overseas experience makes me the perfect choice for a teacher/tutor.
My education background is a Bachelor & Masters degree in Spanish and Foreign Languages. I have taught Spanish at Portland State University, Portland Community College, Lewis & Clark college, and Catlin Gable School over a 10 years period.
I have lived and studied in Argentina and Spain. I have been working as an English language assistant in public and private schools in Madrid, Spain. Besides my teaching at school, I have done private tutoring for both English for Spanish students and Spanish for American and English expats.
I am also a National Board Certified Spanish/English medical & legal interpreter. I used to work as an interpreter along with my teaching and tutoring job. I was given the award for Interpreter of the year for Oregon in 2016.
I have got the TEFL ( teaching English as a second language) certification which enables me as a teacher. I learned about lots of different teaching methods, lesson plans that are appropriate for the level of each student, and learning styles that you can incorporate for teaching any language.
It has helped me to teach my students either Spanish or English in a learning style that is particular to that student. I believe that there is not just one method that works for everyone!
I really enjoy teaching and am looking forward to having the opportunity to work with you!
Katrina :)
I provide professional service to all my clients based on their needs and age group. I do my best to see them progress and I really enjoy seeing them achieving their goals of learning Spanish. It is a win win situation!
I have always loved teaching and right after I graduated from college, I started to teach as a Spanish instructor at Portland Community College and later at Lewis & Clark College, Portland State University and Pacific Univercity.
I have a Bachelor and Master degree in Spanish & Foreign Languages. I also have TEFL certification and am a National Board Certified Spanish/English medical interpreter.

First, I would like to do an initial interview to find out about my student's level and experience and to know about their goals. Based on that information, we can fit the lessons accordingly to get the maximum result.
I use online materials, videos, games, screen sharing, pictures, etc. for my lessons and give assignment as homework to the students. I usually do a review of the previous lesson to make sure that the student has understood the material before we continue to the next lesson. I go with the pace of students since their learning speed is different based on their language skills and level.
I have worked with students age 10-55 helping them with home work, tests, etc. My adult students are usually the ones who want to learn English for their job or for traveling purposes or just for hobby.
Make sure that you ask the right questions and that the teacher has experience and good reviews.
One of my student who was learning Spanish because she was traveling to Argentina told me that her trip was amazing. She was able to talk to locals and have a conversation which made her trip much more fun and was able to experience the language and culture!
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
How long the teacher has been teaching, what is their teaching style, what is their education and training, and what degree and certification do they have.

Sabrina is extremely patient with us as we struggle to learn Spanish. She has a good sense of humor and makes the lecture time fun for us. I also like the text book she selected for us; it allows us to work at a pace we can keep up with given our busy schedules. Sabrina is also very respectful of our time and is on time for every lesson. She keeps our sessions going and on track, yet allows for some deviation depending on our conversation. Questions are welcomed and are never dismissed or devalued; she is happy to answer them for us.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Sabrina to anyone wanting to learn a new language.Sabrina is such a great teacher! She’s patient, friendly, fun and is clearly an experienced teacher. She’s very accommodating to our schedule and makes practical suggestions for how to take our language acquisition to the next level. Honestly, I’m really surprised at how much Spanish we have learned in the 6-months or so that we have been studying with Sabrina. I highly recommend her language instruction services to anyone interested—you won’t be disappointed. (Oh, but PS- you do actually have to study to learn the language, she’s not a magician.)
Sabrina is an excellent tutor. She is always prompt, prepared and professional. I have studied with Katrina for the past 6 months. I have gained an exponential increase in understanding the Spanish language. Studying with Sabrina helped me to confidently interact with native Spanish speakers during my most recent trip to Panama. I highly recommend Katrina tutorial services. Jan 26, 2016
Katrina helped my daughter improve her skills for middle school third year Spanish. After a few weekly sessions, I noticed her grade improve significantly, bumping from a low B to a B+. Now, after a few months with Katrina, her grade is at an A! Katrina always comes very prepared with the right tools and activities tailored to fit my daughter's learning style. Feb 18, 2016
Great!!! She knows the Spanish language just like a Pro! She has advanced degrees in Spanish. Katrina is patient, has a great sense of humor and keeps her students motivated to learn. I highly recommend Katrina as a tutor. Feb 28, 2017
Katrina is a breath of fresh air! She is always prepared and she cares about her students progress. She breaks Spanish down into comprehensive steps so you can begin understanding right away. Within two months of working with her I felt I understood more Spanish than when I took two years of it in high school. She is definitely worth the investment! March 8, 2017
Katrina is a fantastic tutor. She made me feel comfortable with her on the first day when I was quite nervous. She was able to assess my skills without need for a formal test as other agencies do. It isn't all book work and we spend time conversing to help with practicing skills. I feel that I have made quite a lot of progress, much more so than I have in classes in the past. She is a great instructor and is able to adapt to your abilities. She is very flexible and understanding that life happens and things sometimes get in the way. I am so glad I found Katrina to help me with my Spanish language abilities and would recommend her fully! April 26, 2017
Katrina is a very resourceful and professional tutor. She gave me many different activities to do during classes, and shared several tips and methods to inspire me to improve Spanish daily. She's easy to talk with, and super flexible about time/location for lessons. She also held some group classes or gathering among her students, so that we all made some new friends while learning Spanish! Feb 9,2018
Katrina is a wonderful tutor. She is knowledgeable and personable. Katrina has a way of making tutoring fun & exciting for my 12 year old son! Katrina is very flexible with coordinating dates and times for sessions. She is easy to reach and communicate with. Katrina responds immediately to any questions I have. We have recently transitioned from in person tutoring to Skype based tutoring and it’s working out wonderfully! We appreciate her bubbly personality and her kindness. I highly recommend working with Katrina. She is a Superstar!
