Language enthusiast ◡̈ | Master Mexican Spanish via Crosstalk Qué onda¡ Mi nombre es Andrea y estoy en italki hace poco más de un año. Me fascina la conversación libre. Soy del norte de México, donde me la paso dibujando, tomando fotos y escuchando música de todo el continente latinoamericano. (ENG) Hi! I’m Andrea, and I’ve been teaching here for a little over a year. I love nice, free and political conversations. I’m from Northern Mexico, where I spend my days drawing, taking photos, and listening to music from all over Latin America. My goal in every class is to create a relaxed and supportive space for you to feel excited to learn the language and ask questions! I really enjoy having real conversations, from random topics to deep chats about culture and how life works here in Mexico. Nothing forced, but just real chats from real life! I am a big believer in vocab over grammar! It's all about getting your message across and enjoying the process 🦕 Please consider adding a profile picture and using your real name! It’s a small step that makes our community feel much safer and welcoming. If you have any doubts before scheduling a lesson, feel free to message me. See you soon!

Andrea is one of the best teachers I've ever had! She is so patient, and facilitates great conversation tailored to the specific student she's talking to. It's clear she cares a lot about her students, and I've felt that she connects very well with me, and gets very curious about my interests to create really engaging lessons. Andrea creates a very safe environment where I don't feel afraid or guilty of making mistakes, and I look forward to our lesson every week! Andrea is the best :)

Andrea is an exceptional teacher. She is engaging, patient, and brings a great deal of energy to every class. Her teaching style is truly unique, and she consistently provides thoughtful feedback after each lesson to support continued learning. She encourages you to speak freely to build confidence, and then offers clear guidance to help you refine and solidify what you know. Her sense of humor makes the learning environment enjoyable, and she is, overall, a wonderful person to work with. You can learn a great deal about everyday life, as well as region specific expressions that add authenticity and richness to your Spanish. I highly recommend her as a teacher.

I am trying to get more speaking practice in because of all my skills in Spanish, speaking is the most difficult for me and I get very shy. I am a yapper in English and in Spanish that all disappears. Andrea provides a space for you to speak at your own pace and I particularly enjoyed that the last few minutes were used for corrections. Also, appreciate the resources shared at the end of class including a guide that talks about inclusive Spanish.

I have greatly enjoyed taking lessons with Andrea and I've learned so much already in just a few weeks! I highly recommend her for anybody thinking about learning Spanish! She is incredibly patient and kind, and she makes me feel very comfortable to try things out and make mistakes. The lessons feel like having a good chat with a friend, and you get to learn so much about the Mexican culture & dialect while learning the language itself. I am always looking forward to the next class!

I just had my first class with Andrea and it went great. She is very easy to talk to and provided me with lots of information about Mexico! I had a great time. I look forward to my future conversations with her.
