Me as a Teacher
⭐Como tutora tengo más de 4 años de experiencia enseñando español de forma presencial y online, procuro que mis estudiantes estén en un espacio cómodo donde sientan la libertad de expresarse libremente, trato de identificar sus necesidades particulares, y cuales son las áreas a mejorar, de esta forma podemos enfocar las lecciones en esos aspectos, y de una manera clara y paciente, trato de explicar y resolver las dudas que se presenten.
My lessons & teaching style
📚 Me gusta implementar desde temas de conversación básicos e informales como también temas más complejos y metódicos dependiendo el nivel y el interés particular del estudiante, utilizo además diferentes estrategias de enseñanza para perfeccionar el idioma y el crecimiento de su vocabulario y pronunciación, además me gusta realizar ejercicios prácticos durante las lecciones y al finalizar dejar mis recomendaciones y/o tareas.

I keep returning to take classes with Maria. Why? Because she is amazing – but also because after taking years of Spanish, I’ve learned that the key to success is enjoying your lessons. Maria brings incredible energy to EVERY lesson! I always look forward to my classes with her. She communicates clearly, in a neutral accent that is easy to understand. She is well versed in talking about any topic ranging from the intellectual to the laugh out loud funny. However, what truly sets Maria apart is her remarkable ability to make you feel comfortable expressing yourself in the Spanish language. Her open-minded amazing personality gives me the confidence to talk about literally anything and everything.
Honestly, every class has been a pleasure, full of laughter and learning. I feel so fortunate to have found her. I wholeheartedly recommend Maria to anyone seeking an engaging, enriching, and transformative language learning experience.

He probado muchos profesores pero María es mi número uno absoluta, es atenta y empática. Intenta utilizar el español lo máximo posible y rara vez el inglés, lo cual es muy importante para mí. Como es muy educada, es genial hablar con ella sobre temas más complejos como la psicología y la espiritualidad. También es una gran oyente con su manera tranquila. Mientras que otros profesores son demasiado perezosos para mover los dedos, ella escribe cada corrección en el chat, lo que es extremadamente útil para aprender de los errores. Irradia una energía muy cálida que ilumina hasta la parte más oscura de mi alma. Estoy deseando que llegue la próxima lección.

Maria is an incredible teacher! I always enjoy our lessons and get tons out of each one. She adapts to the way I like to learn and keeps me challenged in a welcoming environment. She has a quiver full of activities for learning to express ideas and learn grammar principles by doing, as well as a genuine interest in conversation. It's a fun, engaging space to just go for it, make a bunch of mistakes, and get better with feedback adapted to the way that fits me best. Her lessons leave me more inspired to apply myself, full of new ideas in Spanish, and more excited about my language and travel goals. Super grateful. Thanks, Maria!

Maria provides an excellent lesson by helping identifying areas of improvement and then incorporating them into stories and conversation, to provide practical application the new grammar or vocabulary. I highly recommend!

Maria Alejandra is a great teacher. She speaks calmly and clearly and corrects errors subtly. I continue to learn each and every lesson, and it's like having a conversation with a friend.
