Me as a Teacher
I consider myself to be an easy person to talk to, patient and fun. I have experience teaching different kinds of students from kids to adults in both online and classroom settings (more than 3000 lessons online + 3 years of classroom setting experience). I have been implementing a combination of the Flipped classroom and communicative approach into the lessons and so far, I have seen great improvement in my students' ability to communicate. My focus is to make you speak NATURAL and EVERYDAY Spanish, and understand Spanish speakers thanks to a system and a 30' routine.
My lessons & teaching style
🗒️The lessons are designed in a way that you'll be speaking from day one, and a study plan is provided at the beginning of the course (you need to know where we're heading!) to keep you motivated.

Raquel is the perfect teacher. The best I've ever met in years, and I am a serial comsumer of language classes! She's passionate, competent and flexible!
She really adapts lessons to your needs.
She really produces contents for your lessons.
She is actually helpful if you need more exercises or corrections even out of the time of the lessons (sorry Raquel, maybe I shouldn't have mentioned that XD). She's always up-to-date on the latest teaching methods!
Other than that, lessons are always fun and she's able to balance free speaking with attention to grammar rules and lesson's purposes.
Always greatful for your job Raquel! Thanks a lot!

Raquel is a great teacher! Her lessons are always fun and engaging which is helpful when you are trying to actively use and remember new material. She is very organized and professional, and keeps the sessions light-hearted which makes me more comfortable speaking an unfamiliar language and making mistakes. Being very busy I do not always have time to review as much as I'd like, but Raquel constantly reviews things we have learned which is a big help. She sends very clear and organized notes after each session. Definitely recommend!

Gracias por otra gran lección, Raquel. Hoy hemos hecho una clase maratoniana de 90 minutos, gracias por aceptar este pedido mío. Fue intensa pero la verdad es que me lo pasé pipa! Estoy contenta y muy motivada.
Aprendí un montón, como siempre en tus clases. Para la clase de hoy preparé algunas preguntas y dudas que tenía sobre el español, no relacionadas que hemos estudiado juntos. Tu forma de explicar nuevas expresiones y estructuras gramaticales es fenomenal.
Tienes mucho talento para enseñar y sin duda ya que escribo esta reseña en español en lugar de inglés es gracias a ti.

I continue being a fan of Raquel’s teaching style, such a brilliant teacher and lovely person!
In my life I have studied six foreign languages, so that I’ve encountered a bunch of teachers and without a doubt Raquel stands on top 3 of the best teachers.
I appreciate that Raquel emphasizes correct and natural way of speaking and the way she guides you through this is simply fantastic. My brain expands in each class and I learn a lot.
Mi próxima reseña será en español, ¡gracias a ti, Raquel! :)
