As mentioned, I believe having a native grasp in both English and Spanish is an advantage. It allows me to easily translate idiomatic concepts and expressions that don’t have literal equivalent from one language to the other. I can draw meaning from my native understanding of both languages (and my experience in using both in daily life) to find the right examples and the closest translations from the source to the target language. I studied linguistics and, even though it is generally not required for a language teacher to be trained in linguistics, there is a growing number of experts in the community who believe it's a huge plus. I've drawn countless knowledge from it to teach.

Patient and flexible! I started learning languages over 10 years ago, and so I know what is like to be a student. This helps me to better understand and adapt to each students needs, since we all learn differently. I've had experience with complete beginners as well as more advanced students. And have helped some to prepare for tests as well, which I'm a big fan of. I've also had experience working with doctors, and so if you're one yourself we can work on healthcare related Spanish too.

Cambridge CELTA certified English teacher with a bachelor's degree in Spanish I found my passion for teaching while in college when I quit my part-time job at a restaurant bussing tables. I followed the advice of a friend, who was a tutor, and started tutoring students for some extra cash. I tutored students in my major, which was Spanish, and eventually began helping English Language learners, as well. I found it to be such a rewarding experience; I loved it! I have worked with native speakers of Spanish, French, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, and Arabic and I have found that everyone has a unique perspective. Since graduating with my Bachelor's degree in Spanish, I have had wonderful experiences teaching English in schools in Spain & France.

Beginner Spanish for Real Life 🌎 | Speak with Confidence in Latin America Moving to Latin America—or simply want Spanish you can actually use in real life? 🌎 I help beginner Spanish learners build the speaking and listening skills they need to navigate everyday situations with more confidence. In our lessons, you’ll practice Spanish for things like: • asking for help and directions • shopping, ordering and everyday errands • meeting and connecting with people • understanding and responding in real conversations You won’t spend our lessons memorizing long vocabulary lists or listening to me explain grammar for an hour. I’ll give you the tools and support you need, then guide you to notice patterns, make connections and discover what you can already do with the Spanish you’re learning. And mistakes? They’re part of the process. You don’t need to feel confident before you start speaking. We’ll build that confidence together, one conversation at a time. I know firsthand that studying Spanish and being able to LIVE in Spanish are two very different things. My own Spanish truly developed when I began using it in everyday life while living in Latin America. I’ve taught nearly 5,000 lessons on italki since 2016 and have a degree in Linguistics from UC San Diego. My goal is simple: help you build Spanish you can actually use when you need it.
