Hi.
I'm from Costa Rica. I studied Filología Española at the Universidad de Costa Rica.
Most of my hobbies are seasonal, they come and go. Here are some: Youtube, films, yoga, cycling, sewing and cooking (but I'm not that good at it).
For me, it's more satisfying to enjoy the road of learning them than striving to be perfect in them.

Me as a Teacher
I strive to create a safe space where people feel comfortable expressing themselves at their own pace.
I try to build a connection from a place of understanding without judging.
I'm open to my students suggestions and try to adapt my style to theirs needs and wants.
My lessons & teaching style
I offer unstructured conversations that I guide through different questions.
My lessons are ideal for self-motivated and autonomous learners who want:
- An informal and casual practice.
- Conversations 100% in Spanish.
- To talk (I’m all ears, I’d love to hear your perspective on life).
If you wish, we may practice specific grammar topics.

Excellent lesson with Diego. We went thru many examples of conjugation in the preterite. Really helpful. And fun as well. Looking forward to the next class.
