Speak Spanish with Poise & Precision 🗣️ Conversational Ease 📚 Classic Study 🎙️ Refined Speech I was born in the south of Spain, in a small town named Tarifa (famous for windsurfing). 🏄🏻‍♂️ I consider myself a nice and curious person. I'm always learning something and I'm interested in languages, travelling, cinema, cooking, sports, etc. 🎥 I studied Audiovisual Communication at the University of Granada. At the moment I am a community manager, copywriter and voice actor, and I run a YouTube channel about travel called El Rincón del Mundo. 🎙 I have travelled to different parts of the world: a good part of Spain, unknown Andorra, beautiful Italy and its Vatican City and Turkey. 🇪🇸🇦🇩🇮🇹🇻🇦🇹🇷 As for something I’d say I’m getting better at, it would be time management. ⌚ I love that famous line from Some Like It Hot: "Nobody's perfect". Why is that? Because it's true. Nobody’s born speaking a language perfectly. 🗣 👉🏻 As cliché as it may sound, the best way to learn a language is to use it. And no: there are no shortcuts. Does this mean that the process is eternal, long-suffering and painful? Not at all. What's more, it can and should be fun! 😁 I’d like to get to know you in order to help you as much as possible. Also, when there is trust, mistakes can be made. These are essential - don't try to avoid them! ⚠ We are going to have a really good time using whatever is available: articles, videos, films, music, games, etc. Everything is welcome! 🙌🏻 ✅ The classes will depend entirely on what you prefer and your objectives, but you will like the dynamic...

I have been taking classes with Alfonso regularly over the last 8 months, in which we managed to finish 2 course books, covering the whole B2 level. Thanks to the this intensive course, I not only feel more confident speaking Spanish, but I have also gained a lot of knowledge about the Spanish language and culture. Alfonso is a very talented teacher with a lot of experience. He curates his courses using the best available course books beside his own materials. The workflow seems so smooth and natural that the classes almost feel like a casual conversation with a friend. Overall, the courses with Alfonso are very professional, enjoyable and informative.

Alfonso me ayudó muchísimo en mi preparación para el examen Dele. Durante las clases practicamos y hicimos diferentes tareas para desarrollar mi expresión oral. Alfonso es una persona amable, alegre y divertida. Siempre está dispuesto a ayudarte con todo lo posible. Gracias a su trabajo me sentí bastante bien, o sea, me sentí más segura. Y aparte de las clases buenísimas le quiero agradecer por su apoyo :))

Me gusta el estilo y los métodos de Alfonso, especialmente la inclusión de temas cotidianos y divertidos. Hoy hablamos sobre canciones populares, debatimos nuestros gustos musicales y repasamos algunos sitios web con comentarios graciosos sobre algunos grupos de los años 80 y 90. Buena práctica de conversación para mí.

We had an introductory lesson. Alfonso was engaging and easy to talk with. He explained a grammatical structure very clearly, so that I understood it. We had a lively conversation in which Alfonso encouraged me to talk to practice my conversation skills.

Fue como una charla entre amigos sobre temas diversos, en la que tuve mucho tiempo para escuchar y hablar. Aunque el estilo fue casual, Alfonso me corrigió cuando no conocía una palabra o una expresión natural. Lo disfruté mucho.

Alfonso adapta las clases a la forma más útil en cada momento, muchas veces respondiendo a mis observaciones sobre los detalles en los que me falta competencia. Recientemente, repasamos la pronunciación de las vocales con ejercicios útiles y divertidos. Esto me mostró errores en mi pronunciación que no había oído antes.
