I studied Business and Management at the University of Malaga (Spain). While I was still studying I used to teach Spanish just for fun. I started teaching some people that I met in language exchange platforms.
After finishing my degree, I started working in several jobs that had nothing to do with teaching. I found myself uninspired, demotivated and I felt like I needed to make a living out of something that I enjoy. Then, I decided to start taking lessons to become a professional teacher and I got my certification as a Spanish teacher after 9 months. Today, you can book lessons with me on this page.

Me as a Teacher
I always take into account the frequency of the words. So you will learn first the things that we use more often. Do you think that it makes sense to learn "elbow" before "hand"? No, because hand is a word that you will hear more often.
I like having fun during the class and I like to receive feedback from you so I know how I can keep improving the service that I give you.
Something good about learning with me is that I also speak English, so if for any moment you feel stuck and you feel like you need to say a word in English, I will understand it and immediately I will explain to you how to say it in Spanish.

Well, what can I say about David... I started taking lessons with him about six months ago, and have since completed 25 lessons so far.
David is, without a doubt, a great teacher, and it's plain to see that he's a dedicated and passionate Maestro who works exceptionally hard at his craft.
From the logical way he structures his course to the ease with which he enables you to speak, understand, and converse in Spanish - David is a remarkably talented teacher.
David has a unique way of facilitating learning, in such a way that you never feel you are being "taught." Every class is an enjoyable experience, and I always look forward to our sessions.
Having participated in group lessons, studied with various other teachers, both in person and online - I can honestly say that David is by far the best teacher I've ever had.
Our classes are always filled with laughter, and my Spanish has improved substantially under his guidance.
Muchas gracias, David - ¡hasta la próxima!

Acabo de tomar mi décima clase con David y puedo decir que es un muy buen profesor. Me alegro de haberlo encontrado en italki. Las clases me ayudan mucho y al mismo tiempo son muy divertidas y variadas. Tiene muchos materiales con ejercicios que podemos hacer durante la clase, pero con frecuencia tenemos muy buenas conversaciones sobre temas diferentes. Tiene un gran interés en todo lo que digo. Muchas veces no sé como se dice alguna cosa en español, pero siempre me ayuda a decir las cosas que quiero decir y entonces me ayuda a hablar sobre cualquier tema. Creo que David es un profesor que realmente disfruta su trabajo.
Muchas gracias, David.

I really enjoy learning with David. He does a great job of balancing prepared topics that further my understanding of Spanish, while also being flexible enough to diverge from this and practice conversation about culture and media. He's incredibly responsive and flexible with scheduling. David's passion for his work is very clear and increases my confidence and desire to keep learning, even if it means getting up at 5:30AM to do so!

The only thing I didn't like about the trial lesson was how short it was! But David made sure to make every minute count. I really dug his teaching style. I ended up learning a lot and came out feeling pumped about Spanish. If you're thinking of giving it a shot, I'd say go for it! Doesn't matter if you're a newbie or someone who's just trying to brush up their Spanish, David's your guy.
