¡Hola! My name is Pablo. I am a native Spanish-speaking tutor from Guatemala. 

With over 20 years of teaching experience, I can help you reach your Spanish goals. I have a teaching certificate from the University of San Carlos and have taught Spanish in schools, universities, and online. I teach from beginners to advanced, and my students range from school students to 80 year olds! 

In the first lesson, I'll find out your Spanish level and interests to customize lessons that inspire your learning journey. For instance, if you enjoy films, we can include movie discussions. Don't worry if you are new to Spanish as we can begin from the basics.

For school students, lessons are tailored to match your school curriculum, and we will work towards achieving the highest grades. For adults, the lessons are focused, practical and fun. You will learn Spanish language skills to apply to real-world scenarios. You can go from knowing no Spanish at all to soon putting together your own sentences.  Whilst I use a textbook to provide structure to the lessons, I also use other resources from YouTube videos to Spanish-speaking film clips. 

Since I am from Guatemala, I love sharing with my students, the richness of Latin American culture and customs!  I am a very patient person and also have a good sense of humour so it's never a dull class. Above all, I prioritize making Spanish learning enjoyable and personally relevant to you. Teaching is my passion, and I believe being patient and empathetic ensures a positive learning experience. Your Spanish lessons will be enjoyable and rewarding!

I encourage you to book a free trial lesson with me!

¡Hasta pronto!

Pablo

Hola!

My name is Samuel and I live in Madrid. In 2013 I got my Spanish teacher Certificate and since then I have been teaching Spanish in many language schools -in person and the last two years mainly online due to the pandemic. I have also taught group classes and individual one to one classes in companies. I have also helped many students to pass DELE exams.

I have a Philosophy Degree as well from Universidad Complutense. Madrid. I also really love to talk about a wide range of topics. I enjoy listening and learning from my students. Everyone has interesting things to say. With me,  you will be talking about things you like without noticing you are doing it in Spanish.

I can share with you many books, videos, infographics, newspaper articles etc in pdf format so that we have always fresh and juicy material to discuss. These last ones are a fantastic complement because sometimes the standard books for learning might be designed –what is fine- for generic purposes. Pdf files are included in the price.

I have taught students from every corner of the world and from  very different  backgrounds. I love learning from my students while I am teaching them.

I speak very fluent English so even if your knowledge of Spanish is 0 don’t be afraid. You will always be comfortable in my classes. I am also learning French so I haven’t forgotten how does it feel to be a beginner ;)

I hope to see you soon!

¡Nos vemos!

Hello there! My name is Luciana, I am a language tutor with 2 years of experience (both in-person and online classes).

**Please, if you can, select Google Meet as our class platform**

✨About me

I consider myself to be a very patience, disciplined, kind and creative person.

I am passionate about history, pastries, literature, linguistics, animals ( 100% dog lover! 🐕) and, of course, languages. So if you are interested in any of those topics we’ll make a good match :]

And if you don’t, that’s ok! I find very nourishing learning about topics outside my comfort zone.

I speak Spanish since i am a native speaker from Peru, with a neutral accent. I do speak English fluently, German and a bit of Japanese also.

✨ Methodology

I use a methodology based on research and methods proven by psychologists and teachers. My classes are ALWAYS prepared and structured to meet your needs. The methodologies i use are:

1️⃣ TPRS  (Teaching Proficiency Through Reading and Storytelling) and comprehensible input -> For learning grammar and vocabulary in a engaging, stress-free way!

2️⃣ Breaking down your favorite songs, stories and articles -> To practice reading, vocab and pronunciation!

3️⃣ Direct method (speaking only in Spanish for intermediate or advanced students) -> To strengthen your speaking and listening abilities

ALSO, i always explain grammar step by step and provide flashcards to remember vocabulary (based on the science proved method “Spaced repetition”).

I provide each of my students a personalized plan and homework based on their goals, needs and way of learning.

✨ Teaching Philosophy

I do believe that the ability we have for learning is truly a gift, as i said in the video “The ability to learn is a seed that, with love and  discipline, can grow into a beautiful flower or a juicy fruit”. As a tutor, my goal is to give you the best education possible so you can see progress and value the time and effort you are putting into the language.

I’d love to see you in my class soon!

¡Hola! My name is Alejandra, a certified teacher with more than 5 years of experience in English and Spanish teaching. In my classes, we will focus on speaking and you will be surprised at all the things you can express in a very short time. We will also practice some grammar, reading comprehension, listening, and writing, because a language has to be studied as a whole. 

We will focus on your goals to achieve the best results and I will guide you through the whole process. To study, we will use readings,  music, videos, grammar exercises, and any other resources that you may want.

I know you can do it and I will be with you all the time. Don't wait any longer. ¡Nos vemos! 🌷📚😊

Do you want to speak Spanish naturally and feel comfortable in real conversations — not just pass tests? I understand how hard it is to turn grammar knowledge into confident speaking. I’ll make you feel relaxed, supported and excited to practice.

I’m a native Spanish speaker (also fluent in Italian), teaching full-time since 2021, with 5,000+ hours of lessons and many glowing reviews from students of all ages. I create a personalised study plan after an initial assessment and send short pre-class materials (readings, listening exercises, vocabulary and grammar notes) so you arrive ready to use what you learn.

Lessons are 1:1 and tailored to your goals — conversation-focused because that’s the hardest and most useful part. We’ll start by clearing doubts and correcting mistakes, then spend most of the time speaking about topics you care about: travel, work, daily life, culture, or exam practice. I’ve prepared students for DELE exams (A2 → C1) who passed successfully.

What I offer:

Warm, patient teacher who makes lessons comfortable and fun

Flexible scheduling (including kids) and materials for every class

Deep knowledge of Latin American and Spanish regional differences from living and traveling across the continent

Book a trial lesson and let’s design a plan that fits your level and goals — I’ll help you speak with confidence.
