Hello! Welcome. I'm Natalí, from Buenos Aires (Argentina). I'm a Spanish teacher and I'm also studying to become a Music and Singing teacher. Languages, music, and teaching are my favorite things to do. I believe education is the fundamental solution to improving the world, which is why I love being a teacher.

I've been teaching for over 5 years. I mainly focus on the following cases:
- You're a beginner. You want to learn Spanish from scratch, or perhaps you learned a little in the past but you don't remember some things.
- You're about to visit a Spanish-speaking country and need to learn how to move around and socialize with native speakers.
- You have a partner or family who speaks Spanish and you want to communicate with them.
- You're an intermediate student.
- You want to move to Argentina and you need to learn about my country's culture and our specific Spanish.
- You're interested in Argentine culture, the voseo and our distinctive accent.
- DELE exam: I can help you preparing for the DELE A1 or DELE A2 exam.
- You want to improve your conversation skills.

How my lessons are?
1) I tailor classes to your personal needs and goals.
2) I prepare and provide all your study materials and practical exercises (PPT presentations, audio and video files, articles and news, books, homework).
3) I combine reading and comprehension, listening, and speaking practices to learn and practice the four skills: reading, speaking, listening, and writing.
4) I like to include cultural content (about my country and Latin America).

I invite you to schedule your trial class with me so you can tell me about your motivations, goals and needs.

My name is Gloria. I was born in Barcelona. I am bilingual in Spanish and Catalan and I also speak English and French.

Before I tell you anything else about myself, let me give you some advice about what's so trendy these days: AI.

If you want a natural, meaningful conversation, don’t just rely on AI, talk to a human being.

Unlike AI, I can give you the meanings of the same word or phrase by changing the tone or placing it in different contexts. I can also warn you about expressions you should avoid but need to recognize, which is something only a human teacher with real-life experience can do. Additionally, I’ll help you refine your pronunciation, focusing on the subtleties that make communication sound natural. Besides, I can tell you about experiences and personal stories I've lived—something only a human can truly explain and I can better understand to situations you might have experienced.

Now, let’s get back to talking about me:
I’ve been teaching Spanish as a second language online since January 2015, and I have about 15 years of experience teaching private classes on various topics to teenagers. Before my teaching career, I worked in roles related to my Higher Technical Certificate in Administration.

Learning a language is a challenge—I know this firsthand. I earned certificates in two languages: the First Certificate in English from the Polytechnic of Central London and a Certificat de la Langue Française from the Alliance Française de Paris.

So, what can you expect from my lessons? If you book lessons with me, we won’t just focus on grammar; we’ll speak! I design lessons tailored to your needs, level, and goals. During our sessions, I’ll correct your mistakes and help you improve your pronunciation, vocabulary, expressions, and grammar—all based on real conversations. 

Speaking is the hardest skill to master, but we’ll work together step by step until you can speak naturally and confidently, without any pressure.

If you have time for self-study, I’ll assign homework after each class to reinforce what we’ve covered. And before committing, you can book a trial lesson to see if I’m the right fit to help you learn Spanish.

¡Hola! 😄 I'm the cheerful Mexican teacher you've been looking for to learn Spanish! 

My name is Karim and I hold a degree in Foreign Languages and a certificate as a Language Teacher from the University of Cambridge. I've been teaching Spanish since 2014 and learning languages for 10 years now. So I know what it feels like to struggle with a foreign language both as a student and as a teacher. 

Generally, I'm a dynamic, joyful, and patient teacher, so there's no problem if you're a beginner and '¡Hola, amigo!' is the only phrase you tell your Hispanic friend; or if you're intermediate and you'd like to improve your level to travel or study abroad. You'll be taught by using the best teaching methods and approaches to become fluent enough to be able to speak with more than 450 million people around the globe. 🌎

Your lessons will be fully customized according to your own needs. In general, we will have conversations based on your goals and interests so that you actively learn and practice vocabulary and structure. You won't be taught too many grammar rules unless you require this. 

So, what are you waiting for? Hit the "book trial" button and prepare yourself for a thrilling journey! 

I very much look forward to speaking with you in a trial lesson!  😉

Warm regards,

Karim

¡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! 🌷📚😊

Hi! I'm Agustina from a small town in Córdoba, Argentina. This town was founded by Germans and the have build the first German school in the province. I visited this school and that was where I had my first contact with a foreign language. I love learning them but also teaching them because it is the most natural and efficient way to exchange ideas and learn about other cultures. In my city, Córdoba, I studied to become a German Translator and thanks to an agreement between universities I had the opportunity to do two exchanges in Germany. They were incredible experiences in which I met many interesting people, made friends and visited beautiful places. 

Besides Spanish, German and English I also have an elementary level of Russian. 

My hobbies are writing in my literary blog, doing sports and yoga, going out with friends, dancing and making crafts. 

I have 3 years of experience as an online teacher and I use several didactic resources to make the class entertaining and to provide you with an ideal environment for concentration and language learning. 

I enjoy creating my own teaching materials.

I work with the communicative method and focus my classes to the interests of the students. I like it when my students can loosen up and become more confident with me and the language and can start talking more. 

I work with different materials, I don't like to be glued to a book all the time, but I do like to use it for support and for some important grammatical questions. 

I like to use the material I design as my classes are personalized to the interests of each student. 

The support materials I normaly use are the books Aula Internacional and Prisma, as well as some websites that are excellent in terms of content and design and also very didactic, such as ProfedeELE or TodoELE, among others.

Hello and welcome to my Spanish class! 🌟

It's a pleasure to have you here. I am excited to begin this journey with you. Learning a new language is an enriching and fun experience, and I am here to support you every step of the way. It doesn't matter if you already have some knowledge or if this is your first contact with Spanish, the most important thing is that you are ready to explore, ask questions and enjoy the process. In this class, we will foster a friendly and respectful environment where everyone can participate and feel comfortable. I look forward to meeting you and discovering the beauty of Spanish together.

MY LESSONS AND TEACHING STYLE

I offer a laid-back type of teaching, yes, we'll use books, worksheets, exercises for homework (should you request them), etc. But the main goal will always be turning the lesson into a comfortable space where you can practice and learn that making mistakes is part of the natural process of learning. Most of my students are at a beginner level, but I also have experience teaching more advanced levels. I focus on grammar, structure and pronunciation, always looking to steer students towards sounding more natural. 

I'm from south-east Spain, my accent is quite clear and easy to understand. Book a trial and give me a try. See you soon.

Hey there! I'm Alexa, a native Spanish speaker originally from Venezuela but now residing in Mexico for the past 8 years.

I'm really into learning languages because it's super exciting! It opens up new doors and brings about some awesome experiences. Currently, I'm immersing myself in the world of Chinese and Portuguese. I believe the whole point of learning a new language is to connect with people, understand their culture, and dive into cool new experiences.

My teaching style is all about keeping it fun and practical. We'll jump into real-life situations, chat about interesting stuff, share stories, and pick up everyday phrases, verbs, and vocab—the language of everyday life, you know?

I've seen students make great progress with their speaking and understanding, and I'm pretty sure you'll make some awesome strides too!

There's a class for everyone:

🌟 Casual convos for all levels.

🌟 Spanish courses made for beginners, those in the middle, and those up for a challenge.

🌟 Special Spanish courses for travelers, entrepreneurs, and professionals

And guess what? After each class, you'll get some cool resources to keep practicing in your free time! Cool, right?

My training as a Spanish instructor is based on studies of Spanish grammar and using the communicative approach methodology that is based on practical and simple activities that help develop skills such as oral expression, listening comprehension, writing with dictation and reading as well. Of course phonetics is included. Each class focuses on the specific needs of each student.

In each class I emphasize oral practice to help students feel confident to express themselves naturally in specific situations.

In some cases, the grammatical structure is included in a simplified and dynamic way, and the grammatical concepts may or may not be used in our class, depending on the interests or preferences of each student.

Also, I like to share the history and culture of my country and Latin America through the practice of Spanish as a natural practice for intermediate and advanced Spanish.

I invite you to book a trial class to learn about my teaching system and methodology.

Hi everyone! I'm Mariángeles and I'm from Huelva, a city near Seville. I have been working as a private teacher for over 10 years now. I really enjoy meeting new people at language exchanges, travelling and learning about other cultures.

 I lived in Milan for two years and in Dublin for a year and a half. Both experiences were unforgettable and I would like to share them with you.

Regarding to my studies, I have a degree in Tourism and a double degree in Humanities, Translation and Interpreting. Languages are my passion since I was a child and I will be more than happy to share my passion with you all. I am a very well-organised and peaceful person. 

During my lessons I always try to develop a relationship with all my students in order to discover their interests and make my lessons more interesting and enjoyable. For this reason, my motto is "make learning fun and practical".

During the lessons you will practice all the skills so that you can have a good command of Spanish.

We will go through different kind of activities: listening comprehension exercises, exercises about idioms and informal/formal vocabulary, formal/informal writings, rewriting exercises, etc.

I'm really looking forward to hearing from you and meet you. If you book a trial lesson you'll learn so many things and you'll have fun too! I'll be more than happy to help you with your Spanish :)
