¡Hola! I’m Laura, a native Spanish speaker from Colombia with a passion for helping students speak confidently. With over four years of teaching on italki, I specialize in conversational practice and cultural immersion—making learning feel natural and fun.
Having learned English and French through real conversations, I know the challenges of language learning firsthand. My lessons are tailored to your pace, whether you're starting from zero or polishing fluency. Let’s turn mistakes into progress—with patience and a smile!

Me as a Teacher
"We are going to study based on your needs, in a dynamic way. I will do my best to adjust to your needs and answer any and all questions that you might have. I want to give you the time and space to make the mistakes you need in order to improve your language skills. One of my strengths is patience ;)
My lessons & teaching style
Every person is different, so everyone learns in a different way. We can explore what the best way for you to learn is, and I'll be more than glad to help you with any of your requests for learning my native language. If you are at a basic level, I'd like to make you feel comfortable, so you'll never feel rushed; we will start from the beginning. I'd like to provide you with tools to be able to speak and form sentences right from the start. If you already have some knowledge of the language, we will practice and review the topics you'd like to practice, also learn about the culture. No worries, I am very patient, and you will never feel incapable. Looking forward to meet you!

Laura was great! She asked very useful questions that gave me an opportunity to practice. She also provided super helpful corrections throughout the class, but in a way that helped the conversation continue naturally instead of disrupting it. I look forward to practicing Spanish with Laura again!

Laura is pleasant and knowledgeable so I felt very comfortable conversing with her during the trial class. Plus, to top it off, she gave me homework afterwards. Absolutely loved this first class with Laura.
