¡Hola! I'm Paloma from Oaxaca, México. I'm an interpreter, artist and traveler. Currently I live in the Patagonia ARG, I moved here because I fell for the mountains and lakes but I still love to share about my México. I really enjoy ecotourism, trekking and camping, kayaking, trapece, reading tarot, growing my veggies, writting, diys, making bread and building my house from 0 :D (and cats, I love cats) I started teaching Spanish by sharing my culture with friends I made while traveling around and exploring my own city, we used to do language exchanges on coffee shops, museums and later on a spanish school opened the doors for us weekly. Just a few years ago I dicovered italki. NO KIDS** I'm a very friendly, outgoing and patient person. I love learning through conversation. I'm always making questions and curious about who my students are, using spanish as a tool to exchange mindsets, knowledge, experiences, culture and more. If you're looking for someone to practice your conversational skills, I'm your perfect match! I can teach you idioms and slang if you want to sound more natural, or if you're looking for a diplomatic vocabulary I can teach you that as well. If required I'll point grammar mistakes on words and phrases, but kindly I promise. Everything is for your improvement! I'm so excited and honored to help you on your way to fluency :D *I'm not teaching kids* Usually, I'd like to focus on natural conversation as that's been the practical aproach I use myself to le...

Paloma is full of energy, has the patience that a teacher needs. She cares not just to teach you, but also for your well-being. I've been enjoying having her as my tutor for 3 weeks now. The materials we study with are always engaging, and beneficial to my development. Looking forward to the future!

I had an amazing trial lesson with Paloma! She was so friendly, supportive, and enthusiastic. I'm preparing for an upcoming trip to Oaxaca and had specific questions about culture and some indigenous arts, and she was happy to share info, including some from her academic research. She explained unfamiliar vocabulary, patiently listened to my fumblings, and made corrections as needed. The conversation felt warm and natural, which is exactly what I need to build confidence and vocabulary before my trip. I'm really looking forward to my next conversation.

Paloma is a wonderful teacher! She speaks very clearly and can tell if you don't understand something and she's able to rephrase her questions/commentary. I highly recommend if you want to just focus on improving your conversation and listening skills. She remembers previous conversations you've had and is able to switch to new topics with ease so that you don't feel like you're talking about the same things all the time. You can speak entirely in Spanish, or Spanglish, or mostly English depending on your level and Paloma is very supportive in giving corrections or providing vocabulary you seem to be struggling with. She's very sweet and patient! Conversations with her are always relaxed and fun.
