I've completed 200 classes with Arantxa, and to say she's "patient" and "engaging" (both very true) is a huge understatement. She's a highly effective teacher. I've grown a lot as a student, and she's adapted her methods along the way. These days she challenges me on listening speed and accuracy, on advanced phrases and vocabulary, corrects the errors I keep falling back to, and builds lessons around things I enjoy, like music, culture, and some sports (the World Cup 🙂). Even after 200 sessions, she is always prepared and fully committed to each lesson. I've gained more than vocabulary from our lessons. Arantxa is an outstanding teacher and, at this point, a good friend. Whatever your level, she'll meet you there and then move you along. Highly recommended.

Arantxa is exactly the teacher I was looking for. If you want to learn fluid common Mexican Spanish spoken by everyday people my age (25) then Arantxa is the instructor for you. I love how she takes her job very seriously. She is always punctual, prepared and motivated. Yet she is very natural, and her classes flow like conversation instead of a lecture. She has a great personality and she is very interested in her students! 5/5 highly recommend. My Spanish is noticeably more fluid and I feel more confident speaking. Thank you Arantxa.

Thanks so much for the calaverita literaria! I loved it!

An outstanding Spanish teacher — patient, engaging, and consistently professional. She always arrives prepared and on time, adapts to students’ needs, and makes each lesson enjoyable through interesting conversation. Her positive attitude and accommodating approach make learning Spanish something to look forward to.

Arantxa has been excellent and very helpful

Another excellent and engaging conversation with Ara! She's very good at keeping me talking, and I really appreciate that she types corrections into the chat box. Highly recommended!
