Objective: To develop communication skills with Spanish speakers I live in Zapopan (northern part of the metropolitan area of Guadalajara). In 2011 I finished my bachelor’s degree on language at the University of Guadalajara. At that time I started teaching Spanish to students of several languages. I frequently take refresher courses on teaching methods. I speak mainly about language learning, experiences traveling, gastronomy, natural resources, historical vision of society, mexican music, mexican cinema, new technologies. Other topics are also welcome. I usually introduce grammar activities with dialogues from real-life situations.I work more on developing interaction skills. I am also attentive to the needs of the student and seek to adapt the plan. I prefer to know the student’s interests and ambitions to put together a study plan.

Your Spanish isn’t the problem—hesitation is. Let’s build your confidence. Living and working in Colombia, the US, and Italy taught me that language anxiety is real. Waiting for "perfect" Spanish is a trap. You don't need shortcuts; you need a structured, safe space to sound bad until you start sounding good. I design custom learning frameworks tailored to your exact goals: ― Business & Medical: Stop shrinking in meetings. Master technical jargon, work communication, and interview prep. ― DELE & Exams (Adults/Teens): Pure strategy to dismantle exam formats and eliminate test anxiety. ― Kids & Families: High-engagement, low-pressure lessons for school prep and cultural connection. ― Relocation, Travel & Hobbies: Street Spanish, community connection, and active brain training. No judgment, just honest work. Stop letting doubt hold you back. Select a package below and let’s get to work.

Spanish and Certified DELE teacher with more than 10 years experience ¡Hola! I’m Moni, your certified DELE teacher with *10+ years* of experience helping students smash their Spanish goals—from casual chats to acing exams! Born in Madrid, I’ve lived across Europe (London, Canary Islands) and now teach from sunny Alicante. My secret sauce? **Immersion**. When not teaching, I’m learning new things, and love dancing, or spoiling my cat (and chickens!). Let’s make Spanish *fun* and *effective*—together! As a teacher, I believe it's incredibly important to be attuned to my student's needs and goals. I want you to learn and succeed. And at the same time, to feel relaxed where we learn from mistakes and it is fine to make them. Expect a patient teacher here:) What can you expect from my lessons? Use the language, explanations in English language if need it, fun, role play games, lessons orientated and focused in your needs (improve the four skills, pronunciation, DELE exam preparation with materials included, etc.). I have lots of hobbies and interests so we might have nice chit-chats to practice conversation and use your knowledge. On the other hand, I learnt from my students the most and I will apply my experience. We are a team in the process of learning my language and I will do my best in the lessons with you to achieve your goals..

ELE teacher with 10 years of experience✨/DELE examiner📋 /SIELE preparation/Adults only no children. Hi there! I am a certified Spanish teacher and I have been teaching Spanish online for over 10 years. I have a Degree in Education and a Diploma in teaching Spanish as a foreign language. I am not currently teaching children. My students have different ages and levels of Spanish. The ages of my students range from 16 to 85 years old. My goal is to help you improve your fluency in Spanish. When teaching Spanish as a foreign language, I focus on the 4 language skills: writing, reading, speaking and listening. However, it is important to focus on conversation and listening because they are fundamental tools for teaching any language. Born in Venezuela and based in Barcelona, I bring together my passion for teaching, technology, writing, and cultural exchange. My secret? Tailored, dynamic lessons that adapt to your goals —never cookie-cutter classes. Whether you want to pass an exam or enjoy lively conversations, I’ll help you make Spanish part of your life. I design my lessons according to the interests, needs and levels of my students. In my opinion it is very important that my lessons are interactive and fun covering all grammar topics. On the other hand, it is essential that the student feels connected with her teacher so that the lessons flow in the most appropriate way. In accordance with the Italki platform service policies, all refunds, cancellations and rescheduling of any type of class must be made 24 hours in advance without exception.

Examinadora DELE, profesora nativa de español. No lo dudes, vamos a conseguir juntos tu objetivo!! I have been a spanish teacher for about 10 years to the present day. Not only do I get students ready for DELE exams (from A1 to C2), but I can also teach technical spanish or focus on the conversational aspect of the language. I also work as an examiner for the DELE examination centre. I teach students of all ages, from children to adults. Depending on the age of the student, both the methodology and the topic of the lesson can change. I like confronting the student about his/her preferences, so to accomplish with what is more familiar to each one of them: it is fundamental that the student finds him/herself at ease with the teaching.

Think Native. INTERMEDIATE to ADVANCED level students. As a teacher I am a real enthusiast. I love connecting with my students, helping them with the etymology of new words, with the wonderful world of Spanish verb tenses or with pronunciation. After 6 years of teaching all kinds of students and in different contexts I thought it was time to specialize. So I started to dedicate myself to the more advanced levels C1-C2 as I am a certified DELE examiner for those levels. I also have a Master's Degree in Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language, but what I am really proud of is the opinion of the students I work with. As the years go by I realize that this is much more than a job for me, it is a way to generate incredible realitions.

PROFESOR DE ESPAÑOL Y PREPARADOR DELE Soy de Jerez de la Frontera, en Cádiz y, aunque he vivido en varios países, ahora estoy de vuelta en España, en Granada. A día de hoy, enseño español de forma profesional y creo contenido para estudiantes: David auf Spanisch. Me encanta conocer otras culturas e idiomas y, por lo tanto, disfruto mucho enseñando la mía propia. Practico muchos tipos de deporte: fútbol, running, gimnasio, malabares y pádel. También me gusta mucho leer libros. Descubrí mi pasión por la enseñanza del español sin buscarlo. Trabajaba como animador en un hotel en Cerdeña, Italia, cuando una familia alemana me dijo que por qué no ayudaba a su hijo a complementar las clases que daba de español en la escuela. Empecé a informarme sobre cómo hacerlo y, teniendo contacto cada día con tantos extranjeros, empecé a resolver dudas sobre el español y a hacerme otras muchas. Empecé a formarme como profesor y aquí estoy ahora. Mis clases se basan en la importancia de comunicarnos: No hay que tener miedo a hablar, la otra persona te puede entender con muy pocas palabras, lo importante es comunicar. Por supuesto, también trabajaremos las exigencias léxicas, funcionales y gramaticales de cada nivel usando la gramática cognitiva, una forma de entender la lengua que se basa en cómo pensamos y en qué queremos transmitir, más que en memorizar largas listas y excepciones. Me encanta hablar con mis alumnos/as sobre sus experiencias, sus vidas, sus pasiones y sus culturas, yo también aprendo de cada clase.

    Learning Spanish

    Eduardo is an excellent teacher and I would recommend him to anybody wanting to enhance their Spanish! I have an intermediate level of Spanish and I wanted to increase my skill and knowledge by reaching to an advanced level. Eduardo offers a great plan to achieve that goal. His lessons are very professional and he is very encouraging. He has been especially helpful with helping me with my subjunctive tenses as this is an area of weakness for me. He has been great at helping with this.

  • Kate

    Learning Spanish

    First I have to say that I don’t speak Spanish at all, so I wanted to choose someone who would take on the challenge and teach me from scratch. Veronica is definitely a 10/10 choice. She is so patient and understanding, but also demanding. She is nice, cheerful and very focused during the lessons. I really enjoy learning with her. I never feel embarrassed about making mistakes, and somehow she makes learning Spanish feel fun rather than stressful. I’m very happy that I chose her. I really couldn’t ask for a better teacher. Highly recommended. ❤️

    Angela is one of the best teachers I’ve had on this platform. I’ve taken over 2,000 classes with around 200 different teachers, so I have a lot of experience to compare her with. She’s excellent at maintaining a natural conversation and knows exactly when to correct me without interrupting the flow of the lesson. I also really appreciate that she always writes down new words and expressions during class, which makes it much easier to review and remember them afterward. Overall, Angela is an excellent teacher who makes lessons both productive and enjoyable. Highly recommended!

    Naomi rocks!! I've been fortunate to take classes with her for nine months. Through our lessons, she’s boosted my Spanish speaking confidence, grammar, and ability to express ideas ranging from day-to-day life to more existential topics. I really appreciate being able to discuss culture and artwork in a way that leads to real dialogue rather than just basic acknowledgments. Very highly recommended!

    Today marks my 50th lesson with Luciana, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. She’s an incredibly thoughtful and engaging tutor who has kept me motivated from the beginning, always finding interesting topics and materials that make me want to keep learning. Thanks to her, I’ve gone from feeling unsure about even basic conversation to feeling genuinely comfortable discussing a wide range of topics in Spanish.

    Every single lesson is an absolute pleasure, and I honestly never expected learning Spanish to be such a fun and rewarding experience. Bárbara has an outstanding ability to sense the pace you want to learn at and how quickly you can absorb new material. She always brings fresh, real-life examples to everything we cover instead of relying on the same recycled textbook material. There's a huge difference between having to learn a language and actually loving it — and that's exactly the feeling Bárbara has given me.

Carlos is incredibly good at prompting thoughtful questions and getting me out of my comfort zone but never makes me feel embarrassed for asking a question or getting something wrong. He has an abundance of patience and an incredible sense of humor. Do yourself a favor and book a lesson with Carlos, you won't regret it!

  • dimitrios

    Learning Spanish

    An incredible teacher, she paid a lot of attention on my needs and my level of understanding in the Spanish language, as at the beginning I didn't know a single word. She helped me a lot with getting more confident on daily casuals and important conversations, such as the history of the country, foods, the culture and anything else that you can imagine. After 3 months of working with Alba I am more confident and ready for my trip to Spain.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the CELU exam, and who should take it?

The CELU (Certificado de Español: Lengua y Uso) is an official language proficiency exam designed for non-native Spanish speakers who wish to certify their language skills in real-world contexts, whether for academic, professional, or personal purposes. Originating in Argentina and recognized internationally, the CELU test evaluates practical communication abilities in Spanish rather than focusing on strict grammar or isolated vocabulary knowledge.

The CELU is particularly useful for those planning to work, study, or live in Spanish-speaking countries, as it demonstrates the ability to interact and communicate effectively in everyday situations. It assesses reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills, with exam levels ranging from Intermediate to Advanced. This makes the CELU an ideal choice for individuals who need a credentialed certification that reflects actual language use rather than theoretical knowledge. Employers, universities, and government agencies often recognize CELU certification as proof of Spanish proficiency, making it valuable for anyone looking to enhance their opportunities in Spanish-speaking environments.

How can an italki teacher help me prepare for the CELU exam?

An italki teacher can be instrumental in helping you prepare for the CELU exam by offering customized, one-on-one lessons tailored to the test’s specific requirements. CELU-certified or experienced Spanish teachers on italki understand the exam format and can guide you through each of the core skill areas – speaking, listening, reading, and writing. They’ll provide targeted exercises and practice exams to build your confidence and proficiency in real-world Spanish, which is key for CELU success.

With an italki teacher, you’ll also receive personalized feedback on your strengths and areas for improvement, helping you progress more efficiently than studying alone. Teachers can introduce you to vocabulary, cultural insights, and interactive scenarios that reflect CELU’s practical approach, preparing you to handle the types of real-life situations the exam tests. The flexibility of scheduling with italki allows you to take lessons at your own pace, ensuring you’re fully prepared by exam day.

Are CELU classes suitable for beginners?

Yes, CELU classes can be suitable for beginners. While the CELU exam itself is designed for those with a foundational understanding of Spanish, many italki teachers offer beginner-level lessons that can help you build the essential skills needed to work towards CELU readiness. These classes typically start with the basics- covering grammar, vocabulary, and everyday conversation – to ensure you have a solid grounding in Spanish.

For beginners interested in eventually taking the CELU, working with a qualified italki teacher can provide a gradual, structured approach to learning. Your teacher can guide you step-by-step, helping you build the confidence and language skills necessary for later exam preparation. This personalized approach allows you to progress at your own pace while gaining the knowledge and experience you’ll need for future CELU success.

How often should I take lessons to prepare for the CELU?

The frequency of lessons needed to prepare for the CELU exam depends on your current Spanish proficiency, learning goals, and available study time. For consistent progress, most learners benefit from taking 2-3 lessons per week, allowing ample time to practice between sessions while building skills steadily. This pace gives you a balanced schedule to improve reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills – all essential for the CELU exam.

If you’re on a tight timeline or aiming for a high level of proficiency quickly, you might consider more frequent sessions, such as 4-5 lessons per week, paired with independent practice. Your italki teacher can help assess your current level and recommend a personalized study plan that best aligns with your timeline and learning needs, ensuring you’re thoroughly prepared by exam day.

What are the benefits of learning with CELU-certified teachers?

Learning with CELU-certified teachers offers several advantages, particularly if you’re aiming to pass the CELU exam. These teachers have a deep understanding of the CELU’s structure and requirements, which allows them to tailor lessons specifically to the exam’s focus on practical, real-world language use. They know the types of questions and scenarios you’re likely to encounter, so they can help you develop strategies to handle these with confidence.

CELU-certified teachers also bring specialized knowledge in assessing and improving key skills like reading comprehension, written expression, listening, and speaking.
