I am a former aid worker with experience working and living on three continents. At the moment, I am living in my home country Spain where I combine teaching on iTalki with my training to become a diplomat. If I had to choose one word to describe myself it would be "inquieto". I love learning, and therefore I spend my free time travelling, reading, and finding other curious minds to have conversations with. I also enjoy playing music and dancing, spending time in nature, and trying new foods.

Moi en tant que professeur
I hold a BA in Journalism and a Master's in International Relations. I am therefore not a certified teacher, and I don't intend to teach like one.
I am someone with good social skills, who is used to being around people from different countries and cultures. I aim at developing close relationships with my students and create an atmosphere based on mutual trust, where they can relax and have fun as we learn together. At the end of the day, I want my pupils to consider me as that Spanish friend who is helping them to be more comfortable with their Spanish.
Mes leçons et ma méthode d'enseignement
My teaching style is not conventional. Do not expect homework or tedious grammar exercises. Instead, count on lessons where we will explore all kinds of ideas and topics throughout Spanish, adopting a hands-on approach with special attention to conversational Spanish. For those with specific goals, we will work together to find a method that fits your needs, keeping you engaged and motivated along the journey. Let's get it!

An attentive listener, Rafael knows how to encourage a profound discussion, though in a non-intrusive and respectful way.
Be ready to talk a lot when with Rafael which is exactly what I was looking for in my Spanish language classes. In addition,
be ready that Rafael will seed some universal questions in your head and push you to reflections which is an unexpected bonus to a class.
Rafael’s thorough feedback helps to expand the vocabulary.
Finally, he comes across as a kind human-being that is something to treasure nowadays.
To wrap up, if you are looking for a teacher who is knowledgable, patient and has humane attitude towards things in life, Rafael is def your go-to option.

An absolute all-star teacher! I have been a regular student of Rafa’s for a while, and I always leave fully energized after our Spanish chats. The conversation flows, and I hardly note that any of my deficiencies in the language are barriers to deep and meaningful exchanges. I absolutely recommend his “Next Level Spanish!” modules, where he finds thought-provoking material, based on common interests, to review before the class. I often wish that the clock would just freeze, as his questions and suggestions generate so much intrigue that I just hate having to disconnect. Thank you, Rafa, for bringing my Spanish to a level of real connection and vitality. You’ve got a special gift for inspiring and lifting those around you.

Another great lesson with Rafa! Time flies during every conversation we have and I hardly notice that I've been speaking in Spanish the whole time.
