¡Hola! I'm Jose Angel, a 33 years old medical doctor from Venezuela who's interested in being your community tutor. Outside of medicine, I enjoy playing with my cats, reading, animation, and pop culture. If any of these topics interest you I invite you to book a lesson with me today :)
Together, we can improve your Spanish in a fun and effective way.
Me as a Teacher
As a versatile tutor, I'm dedicated to customizing each lesson to align with your specific interests and goals. Whether you're aiming to enhance your professional Spanish skills or learn essential phrases for an upcoming trip, I'll ensure the lessons are engaging and relevant to your needs.
I also offer full-immersion lessons, where I won't use any English, encouraging you to exercise your Spanish throughout the session. Many students find that this challenge helps them improve more quickly. You'll have the option to practice in real-life scenarios, enhancing your language skills effectively.
Let's work together to make your Spanish journey both enjoyable and effective! :)
My lessons & teaching style
In our lessons, we'll focus on topics that interest you, fostering a relaxed and enjoyable learning environment. During natural pauses in our conversation, I'll provide corrections and suggestions in the chat, including alternative phrases and pronunciation tips.
My goal is to help you recognize and correct any mistakes you might not be aware of, while also refining your sentence structure and expanding your vocabulary. This way, your Spanish will sound as natural and fluent as possible. You have the flexibility to decide how detailed you'd like the corrections to be!

Jose is always really fun to talk to! I have been busy lately and haven't had as much time to do Spanish lessons, but Jose inspires me to find the time, because I enjoy our weekly conversations so much. I have personally recommended him to some of my friends in the medical field, but I'd also recommend him to anyone learning with comprehensible input (CI)!
Note: I would not be surprised if he's also a good teacher if you are using a method other than comprehensible input, but I don't have any experience with that — I feel like he has adapted his teaching style perfectly to what I needed!

My Spanish is improving so much with José! As an aside, I used the patient questions and follow-up questions that José helped me with (which we created in a previous class) in order for me to collect a clinical history, and it went super smoothly! Everything was clearly answered, and I got all the information I needed from the patient!!! He's currently helping me learn how to write clinical observations in Spanish. He has been so integral to my professional growth, and he's always so supportive and understanding. He's so fun to talk to so sometimes I get sidetracked and talk about non-clinical things (which is also great practice) and he also makes space for that, but he's also really thoughtful and reminds me and brings me back to the clinical stuff so that I get that done as well. He's such a wonderful teacher, I really appreciate his expertise, personality, his feedback, and his encouragement!

Jose is one of the best teachers of any subject I have ever met. The structure of his classes are great and you feel accomplished by the end. On top of this he focuses on your needs and is a medical professional. Really an amazing teacher, I highly recommend to anyone do your classes with Jose!

Jose is an amazing and patient teacher! I was looking for someone well versed in medical Spanish, and as he is himself a doctor, he is well suited to the task. He's helped me get more confident when speaking and gives such great feedback. I have booked several more lessons with him!

What a great first lesson with José! Having a fellow doctor as a spanish teacher means exchanging with someone who not only regurgitates the specialised language but also understands the reasoning behind the questions and terminology. I've already booked a lesson package with him, which will surely improve the care I provide my spanish speaking patients.
