¡Hola! I’m your Spanish guide from Medellín, Colombia. Specializing in conversational fluency and literary Spanish—let’s turn grammar into stories and vocabulary into poetry! With a degree in Spanish Literature, I blend culture, creativity, and clear communication into every lesson. Bookworm, storyteller, and language enthusiast—I thrive on sharing the rhythm of Spanish through music, films, and lively chats. Whether you’re prepping for travel or diving into Borges, I’ll make Spanish feel alive. ¿Listo(a)?Me as a Teacher
💪I am highly experienced in teaching Spanish, thanks to my passion for teaching, my years of experience and my studies.
✍I currently teach Spanish to foreigners from levels A1 to C2 in the city of Medellín and also via online.
👌I consider myself skilled at teaching and establishing pleasant relationships with my students.
👍I speak clearly and neutral.
👏My lessons are practical and enjoyable, according to students’ needs and expectations.
👊I like including Hispanic American culture in my lessons.
✌ Patience is one of my strongest characteristics. My lessons & teaching style
👨I always encourage my students to speak, in order to gain confidence and fluency.
💬For me, making mistakes is part of the learning process. So, I make corrections when necessary, but without sacrificing fluency.
❓Communicative approach, in which students are involved in real communication, using the
question as a method to stimulate interactions, based on real life situations.
🔊Use of different materials and resources, including podcasts, articles, news, stories, videos and so on.
📖Homework is key to reinforce students’ skills.
