Spanish teacher with over 6 years working in education. Hi! I’m Mayela, a Spanish teacher who loves helping students feel confident when learning and speaking a new language. I enjoy working with people from different cultures and making learning Spanish a positive experience. I have experience teaching both group and individual classes, online and in person. My favorite part of being a teacher is the connection I build with my students. Seeing them grow not only in the language, but also in confidence and communication skills, is truly rewarding. Teaching has also helped me grow a lot through these interactions. I have mainly worked with teenagers and adult learners, especially beginners and lower-intermediate students, and I have experience teaching students from different countries and cultural backgrounds. Spanish is my native language, and I also speak English, which allows me to support you clearly if you are just starting to learn Spanish.

Mayela is a fabulous teacher. I am looking to regain the proficiency I had several years ago, and she gives me the opportunity to converse. She asks good questions, and gently corrects my errors, writing the correct version in our chat notes. She suggests helpful "homework" assignments, such as videos and websites that she knows will help in the specific areas I need work.

I took a Spanish lesson with Mayela during the 2026 iTalki Language Challenge, and it was such a pleasant experience. She was punctual, polite, patient, and genuinely kind throughout our session. Her internet connection was stable, and I really appreciated how she corrected my mistakes and clearly annotated everything to help me learn. Her evaluation of my Spanish felt thoughtful and encouraging. Muchas gracias, Mayela
