✨️I've been teaching languages to a variety of students from several countries. This has allowed me to learn how to make the language learning process more enjoyable and efficient. I have put together a plan with structured lessons that will help students understand the language and its cultural aspects in more depth. I am very passionate about using cultural exchange as a learning tool in order to guide the student through an immersive journey. I believe this will inspire an interest in a consistent engagement with the language they strive to learn.
Me as a Teacher
I believe in communication systems based on cultural traits native speakers adopt as the immerse themselves into a society. I offer not only conversation lessons, but structured lessons that will help the student understand the correct use of grammar as they apply it in casual and common settings.
My lessons & teaching style
Mi estilo de enseñanza está basado en una sinergia de actividades que promueven el desarrollo lingüístico y cultural del estudiante con motivo de que pueda conectar y relacionarse fácilmente con los hablantes nativos.
Haber trabajado con el Ballet Folklórico de México y en compañías en Estados Unidos me ayudó a entender las influencias y mezclas de culturas que componen a las sociedad mexicanas y estadounidense respectivamente.

I think this was the funnest first lesson I've ever had. Luis is super friendly, and you can tell he truly has a passion for teaching. I can't wait to learn more from him.

My first lesson with Luis went well! He explains grammar and contextual phrasing well, and I appreciate that he also makes time to incorporate etymology and history into the lesson. As someone who is not exposed to Spanish on a day-to-day basis, I also like that he focuses on the more practical side of Spanish.

Prepared is an understatement!! The fact that Luis uses everything he knows about a kid's joys and passions and then makes funny short videos to teach a new concept in a fun way -- mind blowing!! Today he had Ellen interviewing Chewbacca. I can't imagine there is a better teacher on this website. I highly doubt it!! Another great lesson!!

Actually I paid this class for getting information about tutoring in italki, not learning English. He told me about it in really nice way!
It looked like he was so tired cuz it was almost midnight in his city, but I could see he tried to do his best to share his information. Thank you, Luis ! 😊
