Hi there!
I'm Francisco, one of the people most passionate about languages you'll meet in your life :)
I started learning foreign languages when I was 18 and after a few years I developed a method that allowed me to become totally fluent in 6 of them in a record time. Most native speakers of the languages I speak have a hard time believing I've never lived in their countries. Not kidding!
The languages I speak fluently are Spanish, English, French, German, Italian, Dutch and Portuguese. At the minute I'm studying Polish, the mother of ridiculous grammar rules xD
I have developed my own methodology and techniques which fortunately work for my students too!
Ich als Lehrkraft
Throughout the last five years I've taught Spanish, Dutch, German, French and English to over 250 students.
Across the years I have been lucky enough to work with students from South & North America, Europe, Asia and Africa.
Since I'm self taught, I know exactly what it is like to be a language student. I've actually been through it six times already!
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
My method involves discovering and fostering your motivation. Once you combine that with the learning strategy and tools I've developed, you learn at an unbelievable pace. The fact that I've taught myself so many other languages also makes it easier for me to understand what foreign students struggle with and how to explain it in terms that they will understand.
I use a lot of media and music, exercises and chats apps to teach.
Within 5 minutes I knew I had made the right choice with Francisco. He is a fantastic teacher and I cannot wait to get this journey started.

What a great first, 30 minute lesson! Francisco was such a warm, amicable guy that you could easily tell has a pure passion for languages. He was able to quickly sense what sort of teaching method would work best for me and afterwards, I felt nothing but confident that my Dutch was gonna skyrocket 😄😁

Francisco is super engaged, takes notes while you're talking and writes out sentences that could be said better or words to use. He also provides exercises aimed at your skill level which gets you thinking and testing your knowledge. Hij is echt een aanrader!

Francisco is a truly gifted person! He knows the difficulties in learning a foreign language. I would recommend this teacher wholeheartedly. The lesson went very smoothly and I thought it was excellent. He asked me lots of questions, and I was able to answer them without too much difficulty. He also explained all of the mistakes that I made, although I didn't make too many. I would absolutely love to continue having lessons with Francisco!
