¡Hola!
I’m Moni, your certified DELE teacher with *10+ years* of experience helping students smash their Spanish goals—from casual chats to acing exams!
Born in Madrid, I’ve lived across Europe (London, Canary Islands) and now teach from sunny Alicante. My secret sauce? **Immersion**.
When not teaching, I’m learning new things, and love dancing, or spoiling my cat (and chickens!).
Let’s make Spanish *fun* and *effective*—together!
Muchas gracias por visitar mi perfil.
Con experiencia de más de 10 años en la enseñanza del español , y también en la preparación de DELE y SIELE. .Por favor, cuéntame el tipo de lección que necesitas y puedo preparar un plan personalizado para ti.Me as a Teacher
As a teacher, I believe it's incredibly important to be attuned to my student's needs and goals. I want you to learn and succeed. And at the same time, to feel relaxed where we learn from mistakes and it is fine to make them.
Expect a patient teacher here:) My lessons & teaching style
What can you expect from my lessons?
Use the language, explanations in English language if need it, fun, role play games, lessons orientated and focused in your needs (improve the four skills, pronunciation, DELE exam preparation with materials included, etc.).
I have lots of hobbies and interests so we might have nice chit-chats to practice conversation and use your knowledge. On the other hand, I learnt from my students the most and I will apply my experience. We are a team in the process of learning my language and I will do my best in the lessons with you to achieve your goals..My teaching material

Monica is so patient! I am still having some early intermediate troubles as I make my way up to B2, and even though I keep making the same types of mistakes, she is kind and corrects me gently, and is very encouraging. I appreciate her calm smile as she waits for me to work my way through verb tenses and conjugations! She is very supportive and I'm so glad I found her!

Mónica creates wonderful atmosphere where I am not afraid to speak and make mistakes. Also she always listens to feedback and adjusts the lessons, so they will be super efficient.
Thank you!

I have been working with Mónica for the last two months and honestly it has been amazing. She is very prepared and has tons of material for every specific topic (LITERALLY EVERYTHING!).
I studied Spanish many many years ago but I am taking again classes to pass an exam in uni. Working with her has been incredible: in just few months I feel again very confident in my Spanish skills. I highly recommend her!

Mónica was very friendly and easy to talk to. She made a lot of effort to understand my learning goals and encouraged me to speak as much as possible. It was a very good trial lesson :)
