¡Hola! I’m Bárbara, your *DELE exam whisperer* and certified Spanish teacher with 15+ years transforming language learners from 20+ countries into confident speakers and top scorers, *and* fall in love with Spanish.
Whether you’re prepping for DELE, craving fluent conversations, or exploring literature and culture, my lessons blend precision with joy. Trained by Instituto Cervantes and seasoned across three continents, I turn grammar into intuition and nerves into confidence—one *"¡lo entiendo!"* at a time. I speak 8 languages so I get your struggles!
🌍 Let’s make Spanish your second skin—with flair!Me as a Teacher
I hold a Bachelor’s in Hispanic Philology from the University of Granada and a Master’s in Spanish Literature from the University of Delaware (U.S.). I’m a certified Spanish teacher and DELE examiner by Instituto Cervantes.
Teaching in Spain, Moldova and the U.S. has shown me that learning a language is not only about grammar — it’s about curiosity, rhythm and connection. I help my students speak beautifully, understand deeply, and express who they truly are in Spanish. ✨ My lessons & teaching style
If you’re looking for a traditional grammar-heavy class, I’m not your teacher 😉.
My lessons feel like inspiring, relaxed conversations that awaken your curiosity and confidence from day 1.
Using a cognitive and communicative approach, we focus on understanding how Spanish really works — so grammar becomes intuitive, not memorized. You’ll talk, laugh, and learn naturally through culture, films, and real-life topics until Spanish becomes a part of you. 💬
I design all materials myself, perfectly adapted to your goals and interests.
Expect practical explanations, constant feedback and those satisfying “now I get it!” moments that make everything click. 🌟My teaching material

Bárbara has been my teacher for the past two years, and I can easily say she is the best language teacher I ever had! She is super-friendly, very knowlegeable, and flexible. You learn a lot even when it does not feel like learning at all. And if you feel you need more work in a specific area, she always has an amazing exercise at her fingertips. She has brought me from nothing to a functional level incredibly quickly. Visiting Spain now is totally different. And she mixes in lessons on Spanish culture along the way. If there were six stars to give her, I would!

Oh my god, I am absolutely on the 7th heaven when I speak Spanish. Barbara classes, routines, conversations and exercises were a key to the maturity of my language skill. Thanks again Barbara.
