About Me

Interest topicTravelFoodMedical & Healthcare
I love to know new cultures and learn languages; I speak native Spanish, advanced English, and Portuguese, and I’m currently learning German. I love to travel and talk with people from different countries; I can't explain it, but I've always had this connection to foreigners that makes me passionate about learning more about their culture. From my experience, I understand the challenges of learning a language, and that is why I’m always looking for the best methods for my students, which I love to see as my friends as well.
Me as a Teacher
I have been a private tutor since 2017 and have developed my own teaching method based on activities that will make you think and encourage you to talk about different topics. In just a few weeks you will see great progress and become more confident speaking the language. I love to help my students improve in all the areas they want!
NOTE:
-At the moment, I'm only teaching adults.
-The English lessons are only conversational for levels B1+ (with occasional grammar theory if needed)
-The medical vocabulary lessons are only for English-speaking people wanting to learn Spanish (the activities consist of translating sentences and doing role-plays)
-I am super excited to meet you! :)
My lessons & teaching style
I adapt to the needs and preferences of the students, so we will work mainly on the areas you want to reinforce or the topics you want to learn, always focusing a lot on the speaking area.
I use slides to teach you the different tenses, prepositions, and grammar rules, which I send you at the end of the day, as well as the screenshots of our chats so you can study the words we learn in the lesson. If you want homework, text me, and I’ll happily send it.
-I strongly recommend using Zoom for our lessons!
-Book your lesson leaving some space in between to study because we do a lot every session
-Get ready to learn a lot about Latinoamerican culture and to be asked a lot about yours :)

Alejandra always remembers what we spoke about during previous lessons and integrates several verb tenses during our conversations and activities to keep me on my toes! I highly recommend Alejandra as an instructor!

I have now had a number of lessons with Alejandra and she is a fantastic teacher. She has a wonderful teaching method and works out very quickly the way you learn and tailors the lessons to it. She is both funny and incredibly patient. My Spanish has really improved under her tutoring and I can wholly recommend her to anyone. Look no further for a great teacher.

If you are looking for a teacher to learn Spanish, you have come to the right place! Alejandra is an excellent teacher with whom you will make progress quickly. She has a lot of patience, is creative, and is always prepared for classes. Alex has her own learning materials, and you don't have to work with a boring textbook. After half a year of intensive work with Alex, I speak Spanish. Remember, a lot also depends on you.
