I've been teaching Spanish and English online for over 8 years, with more than 17,000 classes on iTalki. My goal is to make learning a language enjoyable and tailored to you. In our classes, we focus on the areas you need the most help with. Let's embark on this language learning adventure together, making it personalized and effective. I look forward to helping you reach your language goals!
Me as a Teacher
In our first lesson, I'll chat with you to understand your language level and find out where you need help. We'll also figure out what your future lessons should focus on. Some of my students quickly progressed from A1 to B2, showing that with the right effort, big improvements are possible. I'm open to giving homework when needed.
I teach teenagers, young adults, and adults eager to learn. Unfortunately, I don't teach young children. Looking forward to helping you on your language journey!
My lessons & teaching style
I create classes based on what you need. Whether you're starting from scratch, working on grammar, or just practicing speaking, we can customize the lessons. I'm very flexible and, most importantly, I enjoy teaching.
