***ENGLISH DOWN BELOW*** ¡Hola! Me llamo Diego y soy de Costa Rica. Mis hobbies principales son el cine, las series, aprender cosas nuevas y montar la bicicleta Además, disfruto compartir la riqueza de mi cultura e idioma. Profesionalmente, estudié Filología Española en la Universidad de Costa Rica. ******* Hi! I'm from Costa Rica. I studied Filología Española at the Universidad de Costa Rica. Some of my hobbies are films, series, cycling and learning new things. For me, it's more satisfying to enjoy the road of learning them than striving to be perfect in them. I believe in learning through curiosity without pressure. I strive to create a safe space where people feel comfortable expressing themselves at their own pace. I try to build a connection from a place of understanding without judging. I'm open to my students suggestions and I adapt my style to theirs needs and wants. ¿Quiere practicar español en un ambiente relajado y auténtico? ¡Adelante, hablemos! I offer unstructured conversations that I guide through different questions. I use the flipped classroom method when teaching specific grammar rules or topics,. My lessons are ideal for self-motivated and autonomous learners who want:
 - An informal and casual practice. - Conversations 100% in Spanish. - To talk (I’m all ears and I’d love to hear your perspective on life). If you wish, we may practice specific grammar rules or topics.

Diego is an exceptional teacher. He is easy to talk to and learn from. He has a lot of experience teaching so he can answer complex questions on the fly and give examples to help the information stick. Classes with him are always relaxed and productive. I would highly recommend him.
