Conversational Spanish is a very important part of the learning as it is the natural way to learn it. My classes are designed to help students to learn in a natural way by choosing a topic and dealing with that topic from all angles: grammar, speaking, listening and translating. That helps students to gradually absorb what they are studying. I usually conduct a relaxing lesson where students feel they can improve and learn at their own pace.
Even if you are an absolute beginner you will be able to speak some Spanish by the end of the first lesson.
Included on this lesson you can have for free a 30min group lesson every week.

A brief note: Since lessons are online, it is best to use a lapto/computer rather than a phone to enjoy the full experience.

As a researcher and professor specializing in linguistics, I designed this online Spanish as a Foreign Language (ELE) course to offer you an interactive and dynamic experience deeply connected with the real use of the language and focused on your professional goals.
This class is designed for students, professionals, freelancers, and anyone looking to enter the Spanish-speaking job market or enhance their profile in international settings. The goal is for you to communicate with Spanish naturally and confidently, boosting your opportunities. Don't worry about your starting point: the content will be tailored to your current level and your specific sector or academic field, allowing you to progress step by step and see concrete results from the very first lesson.
In this course, we'll work remotely, combining video calls with interactive digital tools. What can you expect from this program? Throughout the sessions, we'll use a multimodal approach: we'll articulate strategic conversations with digital tools, explore virtual urban environments, and integrate artificial intelligence models to enhance your technical and sales writing skills.
Among other objectives, I propose the following:
- Master your professional presentation. Learn how to present yourself confidently in virtual or in-person meetings, talk about your career path, and handle spontaneous social conversations or the beginning of video calls with Spanish-speaking colleagues with ease.
- Produce impeccable corporate messages. Learn to write formal emails, proposals, or messages for different teamwork platforms using professional writing techniques.
- Master the specific vocabulary of your work sector. Identify and activate the technical and corporate terms and the appropriate formal/informal register for your specific area of performance (technology, administration, services, marketing, research, among others).
- Perform in mock job interviews. Practice answering common job interview questions in Spanish, improving your fluency, speaking time management, and ability to argue your skills under pressure.
- Understand complex instructions and signage in urban environments. Train your listening and critical reading skills by exploring job websites and urban signage in Spanish-speaking cities using digital tools and maps, interpreting real-world work information.
- Enjoy the language. You will incorporate current vocabulary and idiomatic expressions through authentic content (urban posters, interactive activities and recognized audiovisual productions), so that the process of speaking Spanish is an entertaining and enriching journey for your life.

Aló / Hola / Hey!

I’m Ryan — and yes, in Portuguese it sounds like “LION,” just swap the LI for a HI. 😊

I’m a PhD language educator with over a decade of experience teaching Spanish, Portuguese, and Academic English at every level — from absolute beginners to advanced university students and professionals. I earned my Ph.D. in Latin American Literature and Culture from the University of Texas at Austin, one of the leading institutions for language pedagogy in the U.S. Since 2024, I have held a position as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor.

I’ve taught at major universities including the University of Michigan, University of Texas-Austin, Villanova, and Thomas Jefferson University. My experience includes everything from foundational grammar and conversation courses to advanced writing, medical Spanish, Portuguese for Spanish speakers, and culturally focused seminars on race, media, and society in the Spanish and Portuguese-speaking world.

Beyond the classroom, I’ve worked extensively as a professional interpreter and translator in Spanish and Portuguese, supporting migrants, asylum seekers, educators, and public institutions. I’ve also lived and worked across South America and bring real-world cultural experience into every lesson.

Whether you're: starting from scratch, preparing for travel, strengthening academic writing, building professional fluency, maintaining a heritage language, or refining advanced grammar and style, I tailor lessons to your goals with clarity, structure, and encouragement.

My teaching style is rigorous but relaxed — we work hard, we laugh, and you leave each session feeling more confident than when you arrived.

When I’m not teaching, you’ll probably find me biking, rock climbing, birding, or playing guitar.

I’d love to help you reach your language goals. Let’s get started!
