Calm, anxiety-friendly Spanish lessons for neurodivergent and sensitive learners Personalized conversation practice or Spanish from scratch — no pressure, no judgment My lessons are calm, structured, and judgment-free. I work especially with learners who have had difficult educational experiences, as well as students who identify as neurodivergent (ADHD, dyslexia, autism spectrum) or experience anxiety when speaking. You don’t need to perform or be “ready.” Silence is welcome here. This is a space where learning happens without pressure or fear. Most students come looking for calm conversation practice or a gentle way to start Spanish from scratch.

Me as a Teacher

I have over 15 years of teaching experience and a deeply human-centered, personalized approach. Teaching Spanish for me is not about forcing progress or following rigid methods. It’s about meeting you where you are and adapting each lesson to your pace, your energy that day, and the way your mind processes information. I don’t rush students or correct in invasive ways. My priority is that you feel safe, respected, and supported. The trial lesson is not an evaluation—it’s simply a chance to see if this space feels right for you.

My lessons & teaching style

My classes are based on neuroinclusive principles and are especially helpful for students who freeze when speaking, feel anxious in traditional classes, or need clear structure with flexible expectations. Each lesson is personalized and adjusted in real time. We move slowly when needed, pause when needed, and focus on sustainable learning—not performance. Spanish is learned here without fear, rush, or judgment. Most students start with either anxiety-friendly conversation practice or Spanish from scratch in a calm, supportive environment.

A veces, empiezo a olvidar que incluso estoy hablando en español, todo debido al increíble trabajo de Mayra.

It was super to reconnect with Mayra after a few years of not studying Spanish. We picked up our conversation right where we'd left it, four and a half years ago! For anyone looking for a super intelligent, kind, calm, and interested teacher, I'd highly recommend Mayra. Thanks, Mayra!
