Hi! I’m Natalia, a certified English and Spanish teacher from Spain, currently living in a beautiful mountain region surrounded by nature. When I’m not teaching, I love hiking, painting, and exploring new cultures—intercultural exchange has always been at the heart of who I am. Having lived in England, Japan, the UAE, Lebanon, and Germany, I bring a rich, global perspective to every lesson.
My background in child development and children’s rights allows me to go beyond grammar and vocabulary. I understand learners as whole individuals, and I create safe, inclusive spaces where every student—regardless of background, ability, or learning style—feels seen, supported, and empowered.Me as a Teacher
With nearly 10 years of international teaching experience, I’ve worked with students of all ages—from young children taking their first steps in language learning to professionals navigating global careers. I hold a degree in Childhood and Youth Studies, a TESOL certification, C2 Proficiency in English, and several Cambridge training certificates.
Inclusive education is a core passion of mine. I’ve completed specialized training in supporting learners with ADHD, dyslexia, and autism because I believe education should be accessible to everyone. I also completed a course on Family Engagement in Education , which helps me guide parents to actively support their children’s learning.My lessons & teaching style
My lessons adapt to what you need. Each type of class has its own focus and structure, but all share a common thread: they’re creative, inclusive, and student-centered.
I believe in supporting every learner, so I tailor content to your goals and learning style. You'll also have access to your own online folder, where you can track your progress, review lesson materials, and stay organized between classes.
Whether you're aiming to feel more confident in a new job abroad, preparing for an exam, or simply improving your everyday communication, I’m here to help make that journey inspiring—and empowering.My teaching material

I’ve been taking Spanish lessons with Natalia and the progress has been amazing! She explains grammar clearly, always encourages me to speak, and adapts each class to my level and goals. Her lessons mix conversation, grammar practice, and cultural insights, which make learning fun and effective.
Since starting with her, I feel much more confident speaking Spanish in real-life situations. She is patient, professional, and always well-prepared with interesting materials. I especially appreciate how she corrects my mistakes in a supportive way that helps me improve without losing confidence.
If you’re looking to improve your Spanish speaking, listening, and grammar with a dedicated and friendly teacher, I highly recommend Natalia. I’ll definitely continue my journey with her too. Thank you very much, Natalia!
