🟢 Native English Speaker with a PhD in Spanish Linguistics & a Master’s in Bilingualism Studies
My background isn't just in speaking the language — it is in the science of language acquisition. I specialize in identifying the structural and phonetic roadblocks that hinder learners, particularly native Spanish speakers.
🟢 Personal Language Coach & Certified CELPIP Instructor
I coach professionals and academics whose careers depend on confidence and precision, helping them bridge the gap between intermediate fluency and high-stakes professional and academic success.

I enjoy travelling, coffee, and staying active with my dogs.Me as a Teacher

It was very easy to speak with Joselyn. I expressed myself without feeling judged as I felt at ease and in a safe zone. This is very important for conversation practice. I would enjoy having other classes with you. Thank you so much, Joselin

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Joselyn B. on iTalki. She was thoughtful and empathetic toward my learning goals, and the class felt natural and engaging—more like a friendly café conversation than a traditional lesson.

This was a very interesting and pleasant class with Joselyn. She was fun and helpful, and she is very patient with all the questions I had concerning studying linguistics. She offers a lot of great advice and she also explained clearly what I was not familiar with. I would definitely recommend Joselyn and keep studying with her❤️
