Rafa is the best! I've been studying with him now for over 6 months and he really helps you understand all the nuances of the language, and he tailors the lessons to your needs. It's clear that he puts a lot of time and effort into planning lessons.

I've just started Business Spanish classes with Rafa as I have just received a promotion at work here in Spain which will require me to use Spanish in a more professional context and I've been really impressed with both his professionalism and the presentation of his materials. As someone who works in educational management, it is clear that Rafa is an incredibly dedicated, thorough and knowledgable language instructor. I'm really looking forward to taking more classes with him and see what he has up his sleeve!

Rafa is an excellent teacher, I really enjoyed our lesson. He’s very personable, professional and encouraging. I felt very at ease speaking with him, and the way he gave feedback on my errors was great and so helpful. I can highly recommend him as a teacher and I’ll definitely be booking more lessons. Gracias Rafa! 😊

I have been studying Spanish with Rafa via italki for several months now. He is a very passionate, fun and creative teacher with a great method of encouraging you to think of the 'why' behind grammar, vocab and use of Spanish words. Highly recommend Rafa as a teacher for anyone who wants to take their Spanish to the next level.

I had a really fun lesson with Rafa, and I really learnt a lot in the lesson. He puts you at ease, and really encourages you to speak. He corrects you in a way that is really helpful and encouraging which is fantastic. I'd really recommend him as a teacher :)
