🟢 Native English Speaker with a PhD in Spanish Linguistics & a Master’s in Bilingualism Studies
My background isn't just in speaking the language — it is in the science of language acquisition. I specialize in identifying the structural and phonetic roadblocks that hinder learners, particularly native Spanish speakers.
🟢 Personal Language Coach & Certified CELPIP Instructor
I coach professionals and academics whose careers depend on confidence and precision, helping them bridge the gap between intermediate fluency and high-stakes professional and academic success.
🟢 Well-travelled dog lover & coffee aficionado
I enjoy travelling, coffee, and staying active with my dogs.
Ich als Lehrkraft
After 10+ years of teaching, I believe comfort and confidence are the foundations of fluency. My coaching style is encouraging, patient, and deeply intuitive.
My goal is to create a high-trust environment where you feel empowered to take the linguistic risks necessary for growth.
I move at your pace and provide the tools you need to feel comfortable in any setting.
From A2 students looking to pass an exam to C1 senior executives refining their boardroom presence, I provide a safe zone for high-stakes practice. I strive to be supportive and dedicated to your personal and professional confidence.

It was very easy to speak with Joselyn. I expressed myself without feeling judged as I felt at ease and in a safe zone. This is very important for conversation practice. I would enjoy having other classes with you. Thank you so much, Joselin

This was a very interesting and pleasant class with Joselyn. She was fun and helpful, and she is very patient with all the questions I had concerning studying linguistics. She offers a lot of great advice and she also explained clearly what I was not familiar with. I would definitely recommend Joselyn and keep studying with her❤️
