I give a Spanish course to both children and adults who wish to learn the language from a young Spanish in a didactic way through books that they want to follow, as well as materials such as books or songs that I will give them and recommend to do the classes more enjoyable.

Secure your place and enhance your English skills today!
I offer private classes in the most effective way possible for you. I opt for teaching methods that are totally personalized for every single one of my students. I really believe in the cooperation between teacher and student. My passion for literature and music is profound throughout our lessons as I choose to add an artsy touch to our classes and escape the ordinary.
I specialize in advancing speaking and listening competencies, including fluency skills (pronunciation, intonation, and confidence in speech). Moreover, storytelling in teaching is an approach I align with, and I incorporate it in my classes for the improvement of writing and reading skills.
I undertake exam preparation for students of all levels.
