Review of the contents proposed in this teaching period, both from the point of view of literature and language. In addition, the different elements of communication will be worked on. In this sense, depending on the student's interests, more detail will be given to difficult topics.

I am a certified Spanish teacher and an official DELE examiner at the Instituto Cervantes. I hold a Master's degree in Spanish as a Foreign Language and another in International Education and Bilingualism. I am also an IB teaching certified professional. I am currently a PhD candidate in Applied Linguistics for Language Teaching. I have extensive teaching experience in academies and universities in Europe and Asia, as well as five years of online teaching experience.

I offer individualized programs for all levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (A1–C2), with specialization in:

- General Spanish (for adults, teens, and children): Level up from total beginner to advanced!
- Communicative Spanish (discussion sessions to improve pronunciation, fluency, and vocabulary expansion)
- Spanish for Specific Purposes (travel, business, academic)
- Preparation for DELE, SIELE and IB exams

Each program is tailored to your goals and learning style, combining an active communicative approach with functional grammar analysis. For those taking the DELE exam, I guarantee thorough preparation and ongoing support so you can approach the exam with complete confidence. I work online from Spain with a very flexible schedule; I'm happy to adapt classes to your availability and guide you toward solid, measurable progress. I also offer in-person classes in Málaga (starting in December).

If you'd like to improve your Spanish level, whether for travel, professional communication, or certifying your language skills, I'd be happy to support you on your journey. Write me, and we'll design your study plan together!

And if you enjoy the class, please consider leaving me a review! 😊🌟 Thank you!

I'll see you in class!

I am a teacher with a lot of experience when it comes to teaching foreign students. I propose an individualized pedagogy, and I help both with the preparation of the exams and with the acquisition of fluency in the language. My goal is to move the student forward without overloading him, plus I give homework after each lesson and periodically provide student progress reports.

Extensive experience preparing for math exams for children and adolescents from 7 to 18 years old. Patience, understanding and didactics according to each person are the main motivations that I use.
Mathematics is usually very scary, mainly because methods are used that are not adequate or do not adapt to the students. Every learning process requires a lot of empathy, patience and understanding. I not only check that my students learn, but also that they stop being afraid or terrified, which are the main enemies of learning.

✨ Online Lessons
Imagine being able to learn from anywhere, at any time. With online lessons, you don’t just connect with a teacher; you connect with someone who’s there to guide, motivate, and support you. Whether you’re at home, in a café, or traveling, you can keep growing at your own pace. All it takes is your curiosity and a little dedication, and together we’ll make amazing progress.

👥 In-Person Lessons
There’s something powerful about learning face-to-face. We get to share ideas instantly, laugh together, and build real connections. You can ask questions right away, practice with confidence, and feel the energy of learning in a group. It’s an experience that goes beyond just lessons; it’s about being part of a community that learns and grows together.

🌍 Your Choice, Your Journey
Some people love the freedom of online learning, while others thrive with the energy of in-person classes. Both ways open the door to new skills and opportunities. What matters most is choosing the path that feels right for you, and I’ll be there to guide you every step of the way.

Learn Spanish from scratch or perfect it with a Cuban teacher. If you are introducing yourself to this language, we will divide the classes into a grammatical part and a practical part.
If you want improvement through talks, the topics are free and your choice. In this format you will gain fluency and I will help you improve your pronunciation.
The main advantage of having a private teacher and personalized classes is that we can always go back to the basics or those things that for some reason we find difficult to understand. So, join me and let's enjoy learning.
I'll wait for you here!

I propose a simple and affordable way to study Spanish to keep you motivated and constantly learning.
1. The classes are adapted to you, not the other way around. Here, you won't waste time with programs or groups that are not adapted to your level. Let's get straight to the point! Tell me your goals, and I'll design the best way to achieve them.
2. You set the schedules. It doesn't matter where you are or if your schedule is not the same every week. You will always be able to find a free slot in the class booking calendar to relax and study Spanish.
3. Study and enjoy. Any learning involves a big emotional aspect, the more we like what we study, the better we learn. Thus, in these classes, you will find a safe, motivating, and fun learning environment that will allow you to feel comfortable and enjoy your Spanish classes.

Hello! My name is Lucía and I am a language teacher, translator and interpreter from English to Spanish, and social communicator. I teach Spanish or English lessons at all levels, both in person in the Madrid area and online. I have studied social communication and journalism, and I am certified as a teacher with CELTA through Cambridge University; all this, combined with years of experience as a teacher and interpreter, allows me to apply a variety and wealth of knowledge to my classes.

As someone who has lived in many different countries and contexts, I firmly believe that the process of learning a language is about much more than memorizing grammar and vocabulary, it is about opening a window into the culture, history, and unique life perspective of its speakers. For this reason, I design my lessons not only with the aim of improving your language skills, but also to introduce you to the experience of immersing yourself in the cultural contexts that determine the way people use language in real life. My approach is to create and structure each class session according to your individual needs, helping you to try out and discover the learning methods that best suit your style, a key process to discover your potential for both cultural understanding and effective, fluent communication.

Ready to Speak Spanish with Confidence (and a Smile)?

Join a class where learning feels natural, human, and fun. I believe there’s no such thing as a “bad student”—just teachers who haven’t adapted yet. That’s why my classes are tailored to you—your pace, your goals, and your way of learning.

Each session blends writing, speaking, and just the right amount of laughter. Whether you're starting from scratch or brushing up, we'll make progress together—and enjoy the ride.

Let’s connect, communicate, and have fun with Spanish!

I have a degree in Hispanic Philology, a background in teaching, and over 11 years of experience teaching Spanish as a second language to students of different ages and nationalities. I offer personalized classes for all levels (from beginners to advanced), tailored to each student's pace, needs, and interests.

During classes, we work on grammar, vocabulary, listening and writing comprehension, and speaking skills in real-life, engaging contexts. I like to combine structured teaching materials with interactive, dynamic, and cultural resources.

Classes can focus on conversation, exam preparation, or specific goals (work, travel, studies, etc.). I can also offer proofreading, tutoring, or ongoing language support.
