¡Hola! Hi! Bonjour! Ciao! My name is Yessica, and I'm from Mexico. With five years of experience teaching Spanish online, I hold certifications from Cambridge and a certificate in teaching Spanish as a foreign language (ELE), endorsed by the Cervantes Institute.

I am passionate about teaching, languages, and cultures, which allows me to connect with people from around the world while helping them learn my language.

I welcome beginners with some prior knowledge, focusing on building their confidence and skills for further progression.

As a patient and committed instructor, my goal is to help you improve your fluency. I emphasize pronunciation and the correct use of vocabulary.

My classes are tailored to your needs, concentrating on either grammar or conversation based on your preferences and learning style. We will discuss general topics as well as subjects that interest you, often using articles, stories, and short videos.

I offer one-on-one classes for a more personalized learning experience.

Thank you for viewing my profile, and I hope to see you soon!

I am qualified Spanish teacher from Málaga (Spain). I lived and taught in London for over 14 years before moving back to Málaga in 2019. I gained my Certificate for Spanish Teaching to Adults in 2011 from International House School of Languages, and I also have a Cambridge CELTA (for English teaching) from the same school, completed in 2020. 

I have taught Spanish to business professionals, at University, to GCSE, A Level and DELE students, and to learners who just take lessons for travelling or self-improvement. My previous and current students all come from multiple backgrounds, nationalities, abilities and levels of Spanish, from total beginner to advanced.

In my classes you will start communicating by simple dialogues (simple if you're a beginner) from the first lesson. I will focus on improving your pronunciation (something often overlooked by teachers); teaching you the grammar gradually, so you don't feel overwhelmed; enriching your vocabulary prioritizing your needs and personal interests; and improving your fluency. My students often praise my patience, my well-planned lessons and the fact that they feel relaxed to learn in class. I welcome mistakes (and correct them of course!) as a sure sign that learning is happening. You do learn a lot from your mistakes. 

As a lifelong lover of the arts and a practicing artist, I like to give my classes a cultural flavour, sharing relevant information about music, films, books and art. 

Looking forward to meeting you in class!

¡Hola,soy Marlene! 😃I live in Puebla City, one of the main cities in Mexico. I studied architecture and music. As a Spanish tutor, I have taught over three years to people from all over the world.

Have you ever had or overheard a conversation where you couldn't understand anything because it's not what you've learned in books? Don't worry, in our classes we will learn how we really speak in everyday situations 😉.

I consider myself a very patient and dynamic person, so the classes with you will be personalized according to your needs and interests. I will help you with grammar, pronunciation, Mexican slang, or just have a very pleasant conversation. Conversation is the most important activity when learning a language; that's why from the very first class, we will be speaking Spanish.

I will very happy to meet you!😀

¡Hola!  

My name is Lorena. I am from Barcelona, I have lived in UK and Japan and now I live in Asturias, in the north of Spain. I love cats, travelling, getting to know people from all over the world and, of course, languages. I speak Spanish, Catalan, English, Japanese and a little bit of French. So I can also give you some advice having being a language student myself. 

I have been teaching for more than 16 years and I have 9 years of experience as an online teacher. I love technology, it helps teachers to adapt our classes to students with different learning styles and it makes it easier to provide an immersion experience as well. I have a Master's Degree in Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language and I am a certified DELE examiner so I can help you pass an exam as well. 

My classes are very communicative. You will be start speaking Spanish from day one! And if you are interested, I can include culture topics on my classes so that you can get to know about Spanish music, cinema, history or news. 

Are you looking for an experienced teacher who can adapt their lessons to your needs and interests? Do you want to learn Spanish while having fun? Please get in touch. I am looking forward to meeting you!

¡Hasta pronto! :)

My name is Maribel, I'm Colombian, and I'm a respiratory therapist and language teacher. Currently, I'm studying a master’s degree in Neuro-pedagogy. Thanks to all this knowledge, I use a methodology that is 100% personalized to your needs and desires. 

🎯 I am currently specializing in Spanish for specific purposes, this specialty is a little different from general Spanish, because here we look for a specific goal for your learning, such as a conference, a upcoming trip or simply learning specific terminology of your area.

Together we will set a goal, and in base on that we will create your curriculum, where you are the leader and I give you recommendations. 

 If you are interested, I implement mindfulness, and breathe work exercises to bring all our attention to the class and to favor the concentration and maximize the feeling of joy while learning. We will use online platforms, games, videos, and audios to create fun and interactive classes. I take the time to design the curriculum for each student because we all learn different.

¡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

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?
