My name is Vanesa Zapata. I'm 28 years old, I'm from Medellín but right now I'm living in Argentina. I'm here doing my professional studies to become a professional Spanish teacher. I'm very patient. I have a lot of respect for this profession so I try to improve every day and learn as much as I can. I keep up to date with the latest language education programs and methods. About me: I love art - every kind of art - but my favorite art forms are theater, drawing, and dancing. I really enjoy spending time with my friends and family and I love to have conversations about anything and everything. I want to open my mind and connect with the whole world to understand it better!

I recently had my first Spanish lesson with Vanessa from Medellín, Colombia, and it was a fantastic experience. After five years of learning Spanish, I like to test my skills by having conversations with new teachers, and Vanessa exceeded my expectations. She is incredibly patient and easy to talk to, which made the session enjoyable and comfortable. What impressed me the most was her ability to navigate an intermediate speaker’s conversation seamlessly. Offering corrections during a natural conversation can be challenging, but Vanessa does it so smoothly that it enhances the learning process without interrupting the flow. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their Spanish in a supportive and professional environment.

Attention to detail is Vanesa’s superpower. She listens closely to every sound and helps me perfect my pronunciation. With her patient guidance and clear explanations, it’s easy to improve. I can already feel the difference in how I speak. Definitely a game-changer for my pronunciation practice!

Vanesa lets me talk and corrects my oral mistakes then moves into exercises for me to do orally. Nice balance of free oral expression and grammar/tense exercises.

Vanesa is very patient but at he same time is vigilant and corrects all mistakes, especially pronunciation errors in my case. I am now able to autocorrect some of my pronunciation errors.
