Me as a Teacher
I firmly believe that practice makes perfect, a lesson I’ve learned through years of studying and learning languages. I consider myself a fun, approachable teacher—like a friend with whom you can have relaxed conversations—while providing gentle, empathetic corrections to help you improve.
For my lessons with children, I offer personalized tutoring that includes homework support, pronunciation techniques, test preparation, lessons inspired by travel and culture, and plenty of conversation practice. My goal is to create a positive and engaging environment where students feel motivated and confident to learn.
My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style is highly interactive and supportive. I am very adaptable and believe that no single method suits all students. Every learner has unique skills and needs, so I tailor my approach to each individual with transparency and empathy—whether they are beginners or advanced, children or adults.
In our classes, we will focus on pronunciation, discuss articles and current world events, and practice writing, reading, and speaking extensively. I’m also eager to hear about your most recent travel experiences and the countries you dream of visiting! My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel comfortable to learn, practice, and make mistakes along the way.

Andrea is very knowledgeable and is organized in her lessons. She is a very dedicated teacher and a hard worker- she won't waste your time. If you save and print your lessons, it's like having booklet of Spanish-language grammar and rules.
