Hey everyone! I`m a journalist and native Spanish speaker from Bogotá, Colombia.
I can help you with your Spanish in a fun and easy way. In our lessons, we can talk, and write, but also sing, dance. We will train you to lose your fear of speaking Spanish and be able to correct your own grammar mistakes from the first class.

Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I propose a structured conversational practice. I can choose the topic according to your hobbies or needs. We can talk about a podcast chapter, a newspaper article or the story of a recipe I speak slowly and I can hear you with full attention. Our class is your chance to make many mistakes as possible, so we can practice grammar. Te propongo una práctica conversacional estructurada. Tú puedes elegir el tema según tus gustos o necesidades. Podemos hablar sobre un capítulo de un podcast, un artículo periodístico o la historia de una receta. Hablo despacio y puedo escucharte con atención plena. Nuestra clase es tú oportunidad para cometer tantos errores como sea posible, así podemos practicar

Karen is extremely patient and accommodating—and I really feel supported in terms of expanding my vocabulary, improving both my speaking and grammar, and building my overall confidence in spanish. I’ve been taking spanish at school for over a year now, and have been feeling overwhelmed without a solid foundation in grammar or opportunities to practice speaking. But through classes with Karen, I feel like I am now starting to gain the confidence to speak—thanks to her kindness, encouragement, and patience!

I feel blessed to learn with Karen! She’s incredibly good at and dedicated to what she does. The results on my Spanish are astonishing. I would never have dreamed that 16 classes in 3 months would be enough to go from near zero to holding a 60 min discussion at a reasonable pace. I very highly recommend her!

Karen es una profesora increíble! An intelligent conversationalist who knows how to keep the discussion flowing, Karen is always positive, has a smile on her face, and makes each lesson engaging. She is well-prepared for every lesson, and you can tell she wants to help her students succeed. After only three lessons, I am already grateful to have found her! Try a lesson with her. You will be glad you did!
