Hello dear students!

My name is Cristina and I’m a Spanish / Catalan native speaker from Valencia (Spain).

If you find yourself thinking...

- I‘m stuck even after studying Spanish since childhood

- I‘m afraid others won‘t understand my pronunciation

- I can‘t think in Spanish, I have to translate everything

If that‘s how you feel, I can change that. Here‘s how I know:

1.  I hold a BA degree in Translation Studies from Valencia University and a MA degree in Legal Translation (University of Alicante). I have also a postgraduate certificate in Modern Foreign Languages Teaching from Canterbury Christ Church University. Apart from my university degrees, I hold certificates in teaching Spanish as a foreign language and in professional proofreading from European University of Madrid. And if that is not enough for you I am also an examiner for the Cervantes Institute, and that means that I  know perfectly how DELE exam works ;)
2.  I have 4 years of experience in teaching Spanish as a second language in a secondary school and a private company in Italy and another year of teaching experience in two Secondary schools in England. I also have 4 years of experience teaching adults in online platforms (+1500 hours taught).
3.  I use a communicative methodology. That is, I analyse your needs to create tailored and challenging lessons with the best resources to communicate and write clearly and effectively.
4.  I can guarantee a friendly and supportive environment during our lessons.

And lesson after lesson you‘ll get the strategies, practice and support to get unstuck, speak clearly and sound natural. You‘ll definitely be able to participate in discussions, feel in control when you speak and organise your thoughts in Spanish.

I have been studying and teaching languages most of my life and I understand the difficulties of learning a new language. So worry not and let‘s start this adventure together!

Cristina

 Hello everyone!

My name is Facundo and I am from Uruguay, a small country in South America. I am a passionate tutor and I have been teaching over the past 5 years.

Here are some examples of what to expect in my classes:

. Grammar exercises situated to your Spanish level

. Development of fluency and confidence through conversation practice in a relaxed setting

. Pronunciation techniques

. Learning materials targeting your language goals.

Hope to see you soon!

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.

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.

As a teacher, I use a communicative method that aims to learn a second language through real-life examples to be able to communicate in everyday situations. My classes are fun and effective. With me, you will learn grammar, vocabulary, culture, and we will focus on conversation. If you are a beginner, we can create a plan with the basic topics of Spanish so that you can start learning this wonderful language.

I hope to see you soon!

Spanish conversation practice for adults. 💬

¡Hola!-Hello!

My name is Metzly, a Mexican who loves music, art, and cats!  

I like to help people to speak Spanish with confidence, even on the first levels of the language.

My goal is to build a fun, safe, and no-pressure learning environment for you. So, mistakes are encouraged!

PLEASE NOTICE THAT I ONLY WORK WITH INTERMEDIATE STUDENTS, THANK YOU!

After you book a trial lesson with me, I'll send you a comprehensive test that will allow me to determine your Spanish level. I like to focus on students' pronunciation and effective use of language.

My lessons are "Conversational Spanish"; if you are on a basic level, like A2+ / B1, we can have a more structured lesson.  

If you don't understand a specific grammar topic, we can discuss it and use some examples -related to your life-.  

We can also use pictures, paintings (my favorite way of practicing a language), videos, or anything that will help you to talk in Spanish.

¡Hola!

I am Alberto, a highly-skilled and dedicated Spanish teacher from Spain. I specialize in teaching Spanish both to children and adults, using interactive and fun methods to make learning a language enjoyable and engaging for everyone. As a native speaker of both Spanish and Italian, I bring a unique perspective to my lessons. I have traveled extensively and have a wealth of experience in different roles, including manufacturing, restaurants, and even as an electrician. I later set up a travel agency and hostel which greatly enriched my cultural knowledge.

I've been praised by my students for my effective and engaging teaching approach. I believe that conversation is key to truly mastering a language, so I've designed my lessons to be interactive and student-centered, where you will be actively participating and speaking instead of just passively listening. I've been successful in helping students of all ages and levels achieve fluency in Spanish.

I will assess your level, goals and needs in the first lesson, and create a tailored curriculum that best suits you. I've been told by my students that they've seen progress in their learning and they've been able to understand the context of conversations for the most part now. I make the classes fun and relevant by having conversations about our day to day lives. We start our lessons with conversations in Spanish (for all levels) and then towards the middle of the class move on to reviewing the homework and practicing conversations around those specific sections of the textbook. I am patient, encouraging and make learning fun!

Don't wait, book a trial lesson with me today, and let's get started on your journey to fluency in Spanish. I am looking forward to helping you achieve your goals!

¡Hola! Me llamo Luis y soy de Cáceres, España. I live in Spain, close to Portugal, and I've also lived in Japan and Portugal. I am up to date with the newest learning theories, I use "Language Transfer" and "Comprehensible Input", so the materials are adapted to these methods, focusing on learning in context.

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!

I have been teaching Spanish for 2 years now with students from all ages and nationalities😀.

Whether you are just starting or you have been learning Spanish before I can help you develop your Spanish skills so you can communicate with people that speak Spanish from every Spanish speaking country. Do not keep waiting.😁

I like to adapting my study plan depending on the needs of the student.

Did you know that 21 countries in the world have Spanish as an official language and 31 as an unofficial one? That means that if you learn Spanish you will speak the language that 15% of the countries on the world speak.

Don't forget to book a lesson so we can start working on your Spanish skills together. 😊
