I help adults gain fluency and confidence in Spanish through a combination of structure and creativity, so they can move beyond basic conversation.
I enjoy teaching through conversation, play, and storytelling based on real-life topics, allowing Spanish to flow naturally. My background in literature enables me to design activities that focus on using the language with meaning, not memorization.
For seven years, I have designed training programs in technology and education. That’s why my classes have a clear structure and a specific goal, so you know what you’re improving.
I’m passionate about art, photography, reading, and conversations about technology, entrepreneurship, and theology.
Ik als leerkracht
I use short, improvised stories and real-life scenarios to help you practice Spanish in a way that feels natural. I also include real communication tasks so you can work with Spanish in different everyday situations.
I invite you to embrace mistakes, learn from them, and move past them with intention. They're a natural part of the process.
I help you automate Spanish patterns in your mind so you think and speak in Spanish. My approach also focuses on building self-awareness. So, we'll work on your ability to pause, notice your patterns, and try different ways of expressing yourself.
It's about experimenting so you can develop more flexibility and confidence in Spanish.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
In my classes:
You hear real-time corrections (with explanations if you want, or we work through practice)
You get access to personalized notes after each class
You learn in a safe space where you can rephrase, experiment, and make mistakes
You receive micro-tasks (5–10 minutes) to practice during the week
In the first five sessions, we’ll use exercises and real-life situations to identify your strengths and areas for improvement. After that, you’ll receive a personalized plan to help you move forward with confidence.
See you in the first lesson!

What a special day today, to be introduced to direct and indirect objects, grammar rules that drive the day to day Spanish conversation. Today’s class has really elevated my Spanish fluency and my confidence.
