I am a certified Spanish and English teacher, holding a degree from Martin Luther University in Estelí, Nicaragua. With over 10 years of experience teaching Spanish as a second language, I have helped students from across Europe, the United States, and Canada achieve their goals by adapting to their unique cultural backgrounds and learning paces. My Teaching Philosophy: Conversations Over Memorization In my decade of teaching, I’ve discovered that most learners simply want to speak naturally in everyday situations. That is why my method moves away from rigid, formal courses and the tedious rote memorization of verb tables. Communicative Approach: I prioritize active speaking.

Juana is an amazing teacher! She offers dynamic corrections that don’t throw off the conversation and keeps us on track and focused on practicing the grammar I need to practice. She makes class fun and so personable each time!

Thanks for another great class Juana! It is always such a pleasure meeting with you. As someone who is specifically interested in strengthening my conversational Spanish for my career/work and family/ friend relationships, classes with you have a perfect blend of friendly conversation and focused grammar that is then put into practice immediately.
