About Me
italki teacher since Feb 12, 2019
Hello! My name is Lourdes and I’m from Argentina. I’m currently living in Mendoza, a southern province near the Andes, the mountains. My background is related with art and design, so I’m into a variety of arts disciplines, such as music, films, architecture, photography or painting. I love to know about different cultures and to meet people from all over the globe, thus travelling is one of my other big passions in life! I was an art exchange student, living and studying abroad, so I perfectly understand the problems or difficulties that you might have while you are learning my mother tongue.
Me as a Teacher
I’ve been teaching Spanish to a variety of university exchange students and tourists who want to learn not only about the language itself, but also about the culture in general. So, I’ve shown them the most exciting cultural and art venues from my city. Thus, throughout a wide range of topics of conversations, I´ve been helping them not only to expand their vocabulary, grammar, but also to improve their confidence and fluency in a fun and relax way. So, I’m here to offer you a friendly hand, in order to improve your conversational skills, throughout lovely conversations in a peaceful environment, so in this way, we can learn together and make this language journey a lovely experience.
My lessons & teaching style
My classes are based in developing your conversational skills as a starting point, to develop your vocabulary, grammar and confidence. As we build and expand your vocabulary, pronunciation and fluency, I will focus on more complex grammatical corrections.
Mis clases se basan principalmente en la Conversación, como punto de partida para desarrollar vocabulario, gramática y confianza. A medida que vayamos construyendo y ampliando tu vocabulario, pronunciación y fluidez, me focalizaré luego, en correcciones gramaticales más complejas.

I've been taking classes and conversing with Lourdes for over a year now. And I am so grateful for it! Lourdes is not only a super conversationalist, and supporter of language learning, she's also able to make a regular conversation super interesting, relevant, and exciting. Her lessons are well prepared, fresh, experimental, and playful. I've learned not just Spanish from her, but also things about art, urbanism, music, and life!

WOW! WOW! WOW! Lourdes is a true gem. Learning a new language is more than just being able to speak; it's about the people and cultures of those who speak the language. I consider Lourdes to be an outstanding instructor because she is expanding my vision and increasing my motivation to learn. And, our laughter is a bonus.

If you're looking for the most patient, thoughtful, and encouraging Spanish teacher on italki, look no further than Lourdes. Seriously, take a class with her and you'll see how possible it is to learn another language. I could barely say a full sentence when I started working with her. Now, we talk nonstop for a full hour completely in Spanish making jokes and telling stories and having profound conversations. Like many, my journey of learning Spanish was filled with stops and starts. But it's her generous spirit, artistic flare, and welcoming personality that always brought me back to the language and the culture. Working with her has been one of the best decisions I've ever made. Thank you italki and thank you Lourdes!!!

Lourdes is truly the best Spanish teacher. I originally started lessons to learn some spanish before a trip to Argentina. Even after my trip, I have continued to have lessons with Lourdes, because I enjoy them so much. We discuss lots of interesting subjects and the focus on conversation in our classes has given me so much confidence with speaking Spanish, as well as increasing my vocabulary.
If you are thinking about learning Spanish, definitely book a lesson with Lourdes. Learn an amazing language with an equally amazing teacher! :D
