Hi everybody! This is Josué, from Burgos, from Castilla, the place where my language was born. I can fully understand how difficult (and sometimes frustrating) it is to learn a new language. I've been learning English for quite a few years. But don't give up! In my experience, the most important thing to learn a new language is TO PRACTICE! Don't get me wrong. Studying grammar is vital. However, I know many people who have spent years studying, but not much time practicing. The outcome? Lack of confidence, lack of fluency. Don't fall into the same trap. Let's practice together! Gain confidence, speak fluently, and, why not, have fun! ¿Qué te parece? ¿Hablamos? Espero verte por aquí, ¿vale?

Me as a Teacher
I try my best to adapt to the level and skills of the student. Though this can sound scary, especially for beginners, my priority is to talk and converse in Spanish. You can, and will, make mistakes. No worries. That's the best way to learn. Si sabes reírte de ti mismo, ya tienes andado la mitad del camino para aprender un nuevo idioma.
My lessons & teaching style
The lessons are conversational. Let's see first what your level is. Let's see then what your goals are. Then, we will choose a topic that fits your needs, and we'll speak about it. Simple, right?

I've been looking for a while for Spanish classes that fit my life but that are also fun and motivating. I'm so happy to have found Josué. The class was super interesting, really fun and I left feeling so motivated. Speaking Spanish has always been the hardest bit of studying for me but I felt super comfortable waffling and making mistakes with Josué. Can't wait for my next class!

I have been having italki lessons with Josué for several months and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is really patient has a great sense of humour and always tailors the conversation to themes you are interested in. He is excellent at providing you with authentic Spanish sayings and also often send you interesting links to articles, videos and podcasts in Spanish that reflect your interests. And best of all when I recently visited Spain I found that I was much more confident in conversing with locals after my lessons with Josué. A real gem of a teacher.

Another amazing conversation! Our time together really flies by! I enjoy being able to talk about a chosen topic as well as having the ability to digress to other interesting topics. The conversation flow is natural and Josué creates an atmosphere that allows me to feel comfortable making errors in vocabulary and grammar. This is so much more effective than doing grammar exercises or sitting in a classroom listening to a lecture in Spanish. I recommend anyone who wants to get serious about learning Spanish to leave your "editor's hat" off and just try to speak with whatever words and grammar you already know without fear of making mistakes. Josué is the perfect guide to help you gain that confidence which will allow you to improve your Spanish in a fun and natural way.

Gracias Josué por la conversación de esta mañana.
Hemos hablado mucho de la riada en la Comunidad Valenciana.
Un momento muy difícil para mucha gente y habrá mucho trabajo para renovar todas las casas, calles, puentes y otras infraestructuras.
Lo bonito de lo que hemos hablado es de todo el esfuerzo y ayuda de los jóvenes de la Generación Z. Tengo mucha esperanza en esta generación :-)
Hasta la próxima clase.

We talked for a whole hour once again, and as always the conversation flowed well. Josué is great at maintaining an interesting conversation for the duration of the 1 hour class, which makes the lesson very enjoyable. I'd recommend his classes to anybody wanting to practice or improve their Spanish.

A diverse conversation as always, where we talked about topics ranging from the recent USA election, to different techniques and styles of learning a language. Looking forward to our next lesson.
