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.

I really enjoyed today’s class. There are many things that I could be stronger at in terms of verb conjugation and Gloria recognizes those areas that I need to work on. I appreciate her taking the time to make my Spanish better.

I really enjoyed my first lesson with Gloria. She recommended resources (books, videos) for our first lesson that gave me an opportunity to test my listening and reading skills and then talk about them in Spanish. She is extremely patient and provides good examples for the context of phrases and verb usage. Looking forward to my next class.

Great lesson with Gloria, not only is she friendly but she is very open to designing the lesson to suit my needs and tastes. She supplements this with written notes of our key points as we go, which is really useful.
