Balance between structure and spontaneity 😊 ¡Hola! I'm Belén, a Spanish and English teacher from Chile with a Bachelor's degree in Language Teaching. Born and raised in the southernmost area of Chile, Patagonia. I love dancing, exploring new cultures, languages and creating genuine connections with people from around the world. I love what I do because it gives me the incredible opportunity to guide people through their language journeys, while at the same time learning from them, their life experiences and their own culture. I value the chance to walk alongside them on their different paths to speaking a new language. It’s a very rewarding experience. If you are committed to starting or improving your Spanish with someone who can guide you in a structured way, dedicating time between sessions, and also getting plenty of speaking practice, you are in the right place. Every session is carefully prepared to ensure our time together is well-spent. Let’s start this journey together! 😊 *If you need a different time for your lesson, feel free to message me and we'll work it out. 😉

Belé is an awesome Spanish instructor. I've been working with her for 3 months and I have progressed from essentially no Spanish to having basic conversations about a variety of different things. She is super encouraging and fun to work with. She is well organized and her lessons are interesting and relevant and tailored to my particular language learning goals. She has great additional learning materials and homework that is a great supplement to the classes. I would absolutely recommend her to all of my friends if they were learning Spanish.

Belen is an amazing Spanish teacher! She's so friendly and easy to talk to, which makes learning fun. She's also very organized and creates customized lessons with homework and written/audio content that are super helpful. She perfectly blends conversation and instruction, and her feedback is always useful. Highly recommend her to anyone wanting to learn Spanish!

Belen is the best teacher on Italki that I’ve had. Her materials are great and she’s prepared for every class I’ve had with her. She’s been perfect and I would recommend her to anyone that’s wanting to learn a new language.

Belén helped me prepare for a family trip to Chile, and was helpful in providing a balance of conversation, reading, writing, grammar, podcasts, and Chilean context and expressions. I recommend her to anyone studying Spanish, and especially for anyone who wants to understand the differences with Chilean Spanish.

I have been studying with Belén for approximately 8 months and have noticed a significant improvement in my Spanish. Prior to this, I studied on and off over the years, and there were large gaps in my language knowledge. Through Belén’s organized and well-structured lessons, I have filled these gaps and have experienced an overall improvement in my skills. I fell in love with Chile some years ago and now visit regularly; I especially appreciate Belén’s explanations about the linguistic differences found in Chile. She is patient, open-minded, and kindhearted, which are important qualities to have as a teacher. I now have more confidence in my comprehension and speaking skills and always look forward to my weekly lessons.

My first lesson went very well. Belen was patient and easy to get along with, and has set a well structured framework for my learning.
