Hello there. I was born and currently live in the Domincan Republic and I am married with a son. Whilst I have no formal teaching qualifications I have taught my British husband Spanish from no language skills at all to now being fluent and I also taught my son who is 14 to be bi lingual Spanish English. I think being able to converse in two or more languages is a real benefit in life and it would be my pleasure to help you on your Spanish language Journey. When I am not taking care of my family I like to exercise my mind and I am currently learning Korean. I enjoy cooking , walking and reading and my biggest joy is my garden especially growing and keeping Orchids of which I have over 150.
Moi en tant que professeur
Whilst I have no formal qualifications in teaching I do have practical experience and have taught both my husband and son Spanish and both are now fluent. I am a community teacher and can help you with your conversation and also your pronunciation. I believe that teacher and student must have a real connection as without it I dont think any student can learn. Trust in someone who is teaching you is so important as it allows the student to relax and be at ease and once that is in place they can learn with no worry about being embarrassed if they make a mistake etc. I am the teacher that will do this.
Mes leçons et ma méthode d'enseignement
My style of teaching is very informal and I think that with a more relaxed environment best results will come. I will make use of internet resources as well as Italki and we can read together and have many different conversations about a whole range of topics. This will help not only your range of vocabulary but also your pronunciation. If you do not like to be corrected then I suggest you look for another tutor. I think making mistakes is part of the learning process and therefore it is important that you are told. Being comfortable and having fun whilst you are learning is of paramount importance to me.

Thank you, Yris! I enjoyed our session today and look forward to our next conversation. You are truly a hidden gem. I’m so thankful to have you to support me through this journey. Now that you’re here, I couldn’t imagine not having you by my side to support, guide, and encourage me.

I’ve been taking classes with Yris for 6 weeks now, and couldn’t be happier. Before starting, I had a modest foundation in grammar and vocab but had never spoken Spanish. For me, the idea of speaking felt terrifying—so many ways to get it wrong, and so few to get it “right.” But Yris helped me shift my mindset and realize that what really matters is communication, not perfection.
Yris is incredibly warm, patient, and encouraging—a joy to talk to. And she provides thoughtful and helpful corrections tailored to your speaking level. She also adapts her own speech to match your comprehension level and uses great tools to guide conversations in a way that helps you grow. In just a few weeks of meeting twice a week, I’ve gone from barely forming sentences to confidently expressing myself and beginning to convey more complex ideas.
If you’re new to Spanish or nervous about speaking, I can’t recommend Yris enough. She’ll meet you where you are and help you build both skill and confidence!

Yris was nothing short of amazing; I was extremely nervous but she helped me relax and she also corrected when I said words wrong. This was my first lesson with Yris but I have already booked two more lessons; I am ready to see how much progress I will make with Yris as my teacher!

Life got busy, and I had to focus on work, but I missed my sessions with Yris. I was so excited for today’s session. Thank you for your patience and kindness, Yris.
If you are looking for a tutor. Yris is the only option. She is fantastic and is the best tutor in Italki, bar none.
