Spanish lessons and tutoring for English speakers (all levels)

Von 26.06 € /Std

Methods are flexible depending on your level, goals, and preferences. For example, we can
- do conversation practice
- read something you're interested in in Spanish together
- have a traditional lecture with practice exercises
- go over questions that came up during a course you're taking.

I don't believe that formal grammar is absolutely necessary to learn a language, but I've learned a fair amount about it, so if you want to go there, I'm prepared to go there.

All questions are good questions!

Some quotations from my evaluations when I taught Latin and Greek as a grad student:

"Silvio was a delight to work with. His mastery of [Greek] is impressive, and his joy at sharing his enthusiasm for it is inspiring."

"Silvio is the most patient human being I have ever met. . . . He is very understanding in how difficult Latin can be and never talks down to us like we're stupid."

"I have nothing bad to say about this instructor . . . he has made learning a completely new language (not to mention a dead language) engaging and easy."

The methods will depend on your level, your goals, and your preferences. For example, we can do
- conversational practice
- reading something in English on a topic that interests you
- traditional lessons
- resolution of doubts that arise in a course

I don't think formal grammar is absolutely necessary to learn a language, but I do have training in it, so if you have grammar questions, I'm prepared. I know that all languages are difficult to learn, and English is a little more difficult than expected. Every question is a legitimate question!

I come from a small country in Central America known for the beauty of its nature: Costa Rica. I am a native Spanish speaker, I hold a Degree in Spanish Language and Literature as well as three accreditations as a DELE Examiner (Certificate of Spanish as a Foreign Language), I also have a long experience of more than 10 years in teaching Spanish to adults, teenagers, elderly people and children from different cultural and linguistic backgrounds, both in a traditional environment as well as with new virtual distance learning methods.

My lessons are dynamic, with a lot of diverse resources and always in a laid-back mood to make you feel comfortable.

I help both for private purposes, business and for school. My lessons are mainly result-oriented. It is my intention to achieve a maximum result in a pleasant way. I have already helped many children, young people and adults.
I adapt to the level and the intended result
I keep my lessons varied but still challenging.
I also really enjoy teaching students. I can teach them the basic knowledge they lack, while also working on the new knowledge they need to acquire.
I do my work with passion and 100% motivation.
It makes me happy to see that my students are also enjoying their progress, that's why I have a very good relationship with my students.

My name is Dani and I am Mexican. I always ask my students about their specific goals and their preferred way of learning a language. In my classes I like to take a conversational approach, but this depends entirely on the needs of my students. I use different books with different didactic material, mostly Aula Plus and Bitacora. I also try to practice all skills: talking, writing and listening. If the student wants it, I leave homework, which I correct during the week before the next lesson, so that we can make the most of the lesson time. I share a word or phrase of the week with my students to build a useful vocabulary. Teaching is my passion. I feel motivated by the progress of my students, which I believe also keeps them motivated. German and Spanish are my native languages and I speak fluent English, I also speak fluent Dutch (with a little accent). Therefore, I can explain concepts in all these languages. However, I prefer to speak Spanish as much as possible, also for the beginners lessons, because I believe that people learn the language better that way.

I have a FPELE certificate: Spanish as a Foreign Language Teacher Training. And I have taught A1 to B2 level at a language institute in Spain.

I am a native Spanish speaker and a general language enthusiast. In addition to Spanish, I speak German and English. I am 100% confident that I will successfully teach you Spanish (while having fun and relaxing)!

I've been teaching spanish for 15 years. I am 41 years old, graduated with honors from the University of Salamanca. My main goal in teaching is to make students feel relaxed and comfortable while studying.

Do you already know Spanish? No problem! Rather than building the basics, we can design courses to suit your personal needs and preferences. We can write essays together, you can give presentations on topics that interest you or that I present to you, we can discuss current events, engage in debates, you can write summaries of newspaper articles, or we can delve into advanced grammar. Whatever you enjoy and need, we can do it together.

All my courses combine speaking, listening and grammar practice in interaction with me. Unless you are a very advanced student, we work with learning materials created by some of the best language learning publishers in Germany. These materials serve as a common thread for our course, introducing new words, grammar and exercises at a good pace and in an interesting way, keeping you engaged and motivated. I also show you German food, music and places. In addition, I will introduce you to the best technological tools (homepages and applications) to boost your language learning and take it to the next level.

Another important factor for me is the personal connection. We usually start our lessons with how the weekend or previous weekdays were like.

Contact me now to arrange a first lesson in which we can get to know each other so that I can learn more about you, your needs and desires and thus design the optimal course for you.

Spanish language is the fourth most spoken Language in the world (about 558 Millionen). Every day more people are interested in learning this language, not only for travel, but also as a language for business or to make new friends.
I want to provide the essential vocabulary and pronunciation that students need to use in different situations using visual and other materials. I will focus on the vocabulary needed when the student is in the Hispanic countries.
Also, I want to include conversations used in everyday life, so that students can feel comfortable.
Given my experience as a translator, I can review and correct texts in different fields.

🗣️ My teaching style blends several methodologies, including:

🌐 The Communicative Approach – inductive grammar with a focus on speaking and writing production (through real-world materials, videos, and listenings).

🌐 The Direct Method – language learning through cultural diversity and travel.

🌐 The Affective-Humanistic Approach – creating a calm classroom environment where students feel safe to make mistakes.

🌐 The Comprehension Approach – often used with beginners to build confidence before encouraging language production.

🗣️ Assessment methods: hands-on projects, role-plays, and made-to-measure tests

Master the linguistic precision required for the high-stakes world of Finance, Banking, and Trusts, or gain the confidence to navigate the Spanish-speaking world for personal interests. This class is designed for professionals in the sector, individuals entering the Spanish/Latam markets, or anyone who needs to handle formal documents and communications with accuracy.

As a lawyer, I provide more than just language lessons; I offer a deep dive into the "wording and sense" of formal documents.

The goal is to elevate your performance in every aspect of your daily job, private ventures, or personal travels. I provide the vocabulary and confidence you need whenever you are in business meetings, negotiations, or navigating daily life abroad. Beyond the boardroom, we focus on your daily job performance, ensuring you can handle professional writing and document review with accuracy between Spanish, English, and German.
