Miguel Barrientos

I have taken dozens of lessons with Miguel, and he is an outstanding teacher in his ability to speak to you at a speed and level you can understand while also challenging you to learn more each and every lesson. He truly loves language learning and methods for learning, such as “comprehensible input”, that ensure what you learn during the lesson “sticks” so you can build each time you practice. Recently he walked me through one of his “Short Stories” lessons and I was blown away. He literally personalizes the lesson of a topic/story/character of your interest and tailors it to your reading level. It’s extremely effective for us visual learners as the artistic frames depict what the caption is talking about. Unique and ingenious take on making Spanish more accessible and easier to process/remember. Miguel is simply an amazing teacher who can give you everything you need to actually learn, understand, and speak Spanish. Highest of recommendations.

Miguel is an awesome teacher, i highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their Spanish!

Great lesson. Miguel was great at maintaining the conversation and giving me tips on how to improve. I would certainly recommend him for those looking for a tutor.

I was looking for a teacher to help me over the A2 plateau, and I think i struck gold with Miguel. He is both encouraging but not afraid to tell me where I'm lacking in my study habits. I would highly recommend him to anyone, I'm very much looking forward to our next class!

I've been doing the "learn Spanish through short stories." It's been great; the material is interesting and vocabulary is spiraled throughout the stories. As of right now, we crosstalk because I prefer it. He also gives great tips for people who are learning using comprehensible input.

Another great lesson with Miguel! i love his approach to learning languages, i will definitely book with him again!
