Conversational Spanish Lessons: Speak from Day One with a Communicative Method

From 33.4 C$ /h

My Spanish lessons are designed for learners of Spanish as a foreign language, and I have experience teaching students from different countries and cultural backgrounds.

My approach is highly conversational and interactive. From the very first lesson, you start speaking Spanish. The goal is to learn grammar naturally through communication, not through memorization—so grammar is acquired in context while you use the language in real conversation.

I focus on building fluency, confidence, and real-life communication skills through guided speaking practice, dynamic interaction, and personalized support.

I also speak English fluently, which allows me to support beginners effectively. I like to use English as a bridge when needed and, especially, to highlight similarities between English and Spanish. This makes learning more intuitive and helps students understand structures faster and more easily.

I am a passionate of spanish and i want to share all the love i feel to this amazing subject. I taught basic level of english to a group of stutends in Cambodia for a week during a volunteer. I have wrote 3 books and my spanish knowledge is available in my articles. I share my manuals for free to my students. You only have to pay the class. My classes will be in Madrid, at my home, at a Public Coworking or at students house. I dont have a certificate yet. Im planning to get DELE but its expensive.
The student will be able to see different places in the capital of Spain without leaving the classroom and learn Spanish. My learning idea is based on interactive activities between my student and me, with word games, card games to improve the syllabi. I will also bring printed exercises for the denser syllabi and for reading comprehension activities in Spanish. We will see a text in which different topics will be discussed and the student must understand what each paragraph says. For this last exercise, I will use the texts and printed images from my printed edition of Guía de Madrid.

This course suggests that we enter a level of English that allows you to deal with your personal life and your professional life. Furthermore, the idea is to be able to talk about the media, to function in different environments. It is also important in this course to think about eating. How nice it is to know how to order a good plate of food or go to a gym knowing how to talk to people. Here you can delve into the different greetings and means of establishing contact with Spanish.

During the speaking leaons I will focuse on: pronunciation and accent softening, sentence flow and spontaneous responces.

I tailor my classes around the interests and needs of my students. With children, especially, so they are learning the language through their existing interests and this helps them stay motivated. With adults, I specialize in Business English and make sure I understand how they could immediately apply what they’ve learnt. So we start with an email, a presentation, whatever they’re working towards. I believe good teaching takes time, attention and a safe space to make mistakes :)
