Living in Medellin, Colombia

Let me guide your language learning journey Howdy, students! I am Toni, a native Texan living abroad in Colombia, where I've been since 2018. I live in the countryside with my cat and a flourishing collection of plants. I have an eternal passion and copious amounts of energy for teaching and learning, and I love sharing both! In my spare time, you can find me relishing a good book, hiking in nature, cooking vegan meals, gardening, dabbling in artisanal projects, ax-throwing, or practicing natural horsemanship. I look forward to meeting you soon! I am patient. This is one of the most popular comments I receive from students, and I am proud to embody a kind and encouraging approach. I understand what it is like to walk in your shoes learning a foreign language, and I am here to guide you along your journey. I'm renowned for being easily understood. As a Southerner, I don't speak swiftly but will compensate with new phrases and idioms. I hope to be a friend you will remember for many years, long after you speak fluently. So let's get in touch! Please send me a message regarding my availability; I am often available outside my hours, and I frequently offer package deal$! I guide student-led conversational classes, which will feel like you are talking to a friend. We will use many examples from your own life to personalize your lessons and make challenging topics more memorable and easier to digest. I utilize many different tools for visual, auditory, and even kinesthetic learners! I also love sharing the resources I have ...

Professor Tony was great. It was my first class after a period of study without much conversation practice and I'm really enjoying it. She was very attentive and suited my level of English. I recommend!

I like Toni's classes because she pays close attention to every topic we cover and helps me improve every sentence. She also shares study materials with me.

It was my first lesson. The teacher spoke at a level that was easy for me to understand and appropriate for my level. She gave me plenty of opportunities to speak, which was very important to me. We talked about a variety of everyday topics using conversational English. I am very satisfied with the lesson.
