Spanish Lessons - Native Teacher with extensive experience with American and UK students (online or in Madrid)

From 23 € /h

I am a Spanish native teacher, with extensive experience teaching Spanish to foreign students at from primary and secondary levels and higher education. I have taught American and UK students over the last seven years, whilst pursuing my studies in Spain and in the United Kingdom. I was recently awarded my PhD, through which I learnt methodological aspects of teaching different types of public from different backgrounds.

My classes are dynamic and centred on the student's progress, carrying out different interactive activities, role-playing and exercises that will make the student increase his/her confidence with the use of Spanish, whilst learning grammar and vocabulary. I usually give the students the opportunity to send me writings that I correct at home, and I recommend listening activities that will help the student to improve his/her understanding of the language during lessons. My complete proficiency of the English language makes it easier for the student to ask specific questions or to understand how some expressions work in Spanish, having my English explanation at hand (in order to make them fully understand the most difficult aspect of Spanish).

If you want to improve your Spanish in a quick and efficient manner, do not hesitate to get in touch and discuss options with me.

If the answer is yes, I am here to teach you and take you on a trip to past historical periods, learning the keys of each culture, and enjoying learning about ancient empires, wars, society and the diversity of people that shaped the world in which we live today. I am Rubén, a recent PhD in Archaeology by the University of Leicester with extensive experience teaching in academia for the last 6 years. I have also taught Spanish to foreign students at from primary and secondary levels and higher education. I have taught American and UK students over the last seven years, whilst pursuing my studies in Spain and in the United Kingdom. I was recently awarded my PhD, through which I developed methodological aspects of teaching different types of public from different backgrounds. My experience to communicate to different types of audiences have been enhanced through my work as a contributing writer for the National Geographic History Magazine.

The variety of topics and subjects we can cover will vary depending on the interest of the student. From general Art History lessons to very specific ones, such as the Art of the Roman World and the Provinces, or different tours through Pompeii, Herculaneum and other legendary cities of the Ancient World such as Rome, Athens, and many more.

Learning Spanish at C1 level is not difficult. Even if it requires some hours of work, I can help you to make them productive, interesting, with clear examples, and above all, good vibes!
You may have to deal with a lot of different verb tenses, different accents from so many countries that have Spanish as their native language, or you may simply want to improve your skills for work. In the hour of work that we will do, rather than focusing on books, we will go out, learn vocabulary and do some day to day activities that will take away your fears of speaking Spanish.

I teach Spanish as a foreign language from a basic to an advanced level. It will be a pleasure to accompany you on your way to immerse yourself in the language and its cultural context.

My motto is always to find a way to motivate my students and make them progress according to their needs and goals.

In my class, you will find an abundant use of visual resources to stimulate memory and a flexible approach to achieve comprehensive language command from everyday life situations to specialised topics.

My courses include:

- Spanish courses for specific purposes (tourism, academic, business).

- Spanish grammar / Use of language / Language Skills Practicum.

- Language through culture (Hispano-American cinema, music and popular culture)

Learn Spanish from scratch or perfect it with a Cuban teacher. If you are introducing yourself to this language, we will divide the classes into a grammatical part and a practical part.
If you want improvement through talks, the topics are free and your choice. In this format you will gain fluency and I will help you improve your pronunciation.
The main advantage of having a private teacher and personalized classes is that we can always go back to the basics or those things that for some reason we find difficult to understand. So, join me and let's enjoy learning.
I'll wait for you here!

I propose a simple and affordable way to study Spanish to keep you motivated and constantly learning.
1. The classes are adapted to you, not the other way around. Here, you won't waste time with programs or groups that are not adapted to your level. Let's get straight to the point! Tell me your goals, and I'll design the best way to achieve them.
2. You set the schedules. It doesn't matter where you are or if your schedule is not the same every week. You will always be able to find a free slot in the class booking calendar to relax and study Spanish.
3. Study and enjoy. Any learning involves a big emotional aspect, the more we like what we study, the better we learn. Thus, in these classes, you will find a safe, motivating, and fun learning environment that will allow you to feel comfortable and enjoy your Spanish classes.

Do you want to really learn English and enjoy the process?

I am a cheerful, empathetic person, passionate about teaching. For me, there are no bad students; only teachers who haven't yet found the right way to connect. I firmly believe that it's the teacher's responsibility to adapt to each student's needs, not the other way around. That's why my classes are designed for you: so you feel comfortable, motivated, and supported every step of the way.

In my classes, we combine writing, listening, and speaking practice, and we always leave room for a laugh or two. Because learning a language doesn't have to be boring or stressful: it can be a creative, humane, and even fun experience.

Whether you're starting from scratch or looking to improve your level, I'll guide you through this process with patience, clarity, and a lot of energy. The goal is for you to gain confidence and fluency, without fear of making mistakes.

Do you dare to try it?

I have a degree in Hispanic Philology, a background in teaching, and over 11 years of experience teaching Spanish as a second language to students of different ages and nationalities. I offer personalized classes for all levels (from beginners to advanced), tailored to each student's pace, needs, and interests.

During classes, we work on grammar, vocabulary, listening and writing comprehension, and speaking skills in real-life, engaging contexts. I like to combine structured teaching materials with interactive, dynamic, and cultural resources.

Classes can focus on conversation, exam preparation, or specific goals (work, travel, studies, etc.). I can also offer proofreading, tutoring, or ongoing language support.
