¡Hola a todos! I'm a Dominican native Spanish speaker and certified ELE teacher with over 5 years of experience. I study Psychology, which helps me understand how each student learns and how to boost their confidence when speaking. I’m passionate about languages, I speak English, French, and some Mandarin which allows me to not only better connect with my students but also to understand their challenges learning my language. I’m patient and easygoing. I understand that confidence is key to speaking a language naturally. I focus on developing all four language skills in a dynamic and friendly atmosphere, with tailored lessons adapted to your needs and enjoyable, useful, and engaging conversations. I always seek to improve my teaching by taking courses and exploring new methods that make learning more effective and engaging. My goal is to help you be fluent and feel comfortable speaking Spanish through personalized and structured lessons. In my lessons, I combine natural conversation with authentic materials such as articles, audio, and images. We work on all four language skills—speaking, listening, reading, and writing—in a balanced way. Each class is tailored to your needs and interests, with clear and useful feedback to help you improve confidently and fluently. Book a trial class with me so I get to know your motivation for learning Spanish, assess your level, and find the right learning method for you so we can achieve your goals.
