Miguel -SpanishInput

Miguel is an experienced, professional teacher who uses both creative and analytic methods to teach proper pronunciation and, equally importantly, hearing. He has some truly impressive materials to help serious students improve their ability to hear sounds, the likes of which I have not encountered before. One example among many: he uses custom templates in the open-source Anki program to teach how to hear Spanish sounds as they appear in normal speech, which to my beginner's ears is completely different than how they appear in isolation. There are many friendly teachers on iTalki that provide patient, supportive practice. What makes Miguel unique are his quantitative and qualitative approaches to teaching hearing and pronunciation. These are stumbling blocks for nearly all language learners, even ones fluent in their target language, such as expats who still have a heavy accent after decades. Regardless of your current level, Miguel can improve your accent.

Amazing and detailed teacher. He's very thorough and if you're looking for someone to help with pronunciation, he's your guy!

Excellent teacher. Extremely knowledgeable about Spanish phonetics. Has a great youtube channel called Spanish Input. If you're looking to improve your Spanish pronunciation, Miguel is the best choice.

Miguel has an excellent grasp of pedagogical technique, and has top-notch videos. While I am just beginning to learn to speak Spanish, I wanted to start by learning the correct pronunciation - I don't want to have to unlearn bad habits later. After just the first lesson, Miguel showed me several mistakes that I had been making. I fully expect that I will have a noticeable accent reduction in a dozen lessons.

Excellent class.

Como muchos de ustedes, encontré a Miguel por YouTube, y sus lecciones valen completamente el costo. En cuatro lecciones, estoy más consciente de mi pronunciación, y Miguel es, más o menos (después de tres años aprendiendo), el único hispanohablante al que puedo entender al 90%. Un verdadero profesional.
