sandra is really adaptable, positive + creative. my lessons with her so far have made me feel like I can leave the session and use what I have learned right away. very practical and helpful!
Sandra is a real good teacher.
Great lesson. Felt very comfortable. Even created a personalized study guide recapping the lesson. Looking forward to the next lesson.
Sandra is an excellent teacher - she's extremely knowledgeable of spanish grammar and vocabulary, and is very good at explaining difficult concepts in a simple way. She clearly put a lot of effort into every lesson, which resulted in me improving quite a lot in just a few lessons. Best of all she's a great person who is fun to talk with. Every class was truly enjoyable.
Excellent teacher — highly recommended

Clases Particulares y Clases Empresariales de Inglés General y de Business English para ejecutivos, empresas y el público en generalI have a degree in psychology with a minor in Spanish. I hold a master's degree in Transactional Analysis, a sub-field of psychology. My hobbies include salsa music, watching movies, traveling, biking, swimming, and exercising. Before becoming an independent teacher, I taught English at a public school in Oakland, California. Previously, I served as a sales manager for a travel agency in both Mexico and California.
For lessons, I begin with a diagnostic session to understand your goals, needs, and interests. This is basically an evaluation so I can see what your "wants and needs" are, as well as your goals, requirements, interests, and we'll go from there. At the end of the first session I will give you an estimate as to the timeline needed to reach your objectives.
My teaching methodologies include L1-L2, Grammar, Direct Method, Communicative Approach, Eclectic Approach, Intensive Conversational Method, and Role-Play Workshops (especially useful for practicing job interviews and presentations).
I specialize in General English, Business English, IELTS, and English for healthcare professionals. Typically, it takes two to three months to reach C1 level from B1-B2. I offer tailored classes, emphasizing collocations, grammar, sentence structure, speech, informal colloquial (spoken) language, phrasal verbs, idiomatic expressions, and verb-preposition usage. I also use a lot of exercises, free conversations, discussion topics, role plays and some grammar if and when needed.
Most of my students are native Spanish speakers as I am fully bilingual. Feel free to reach out so we can discuss how I can assist you with your specific plans!

Learn or perfect your Spanish with a native teacherLearn 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!

SPANISH classes for people of all ages and levels.My name is Sara and I am Italian and pentalingual! I love languages and since many years I am teaching Italian, Spanish, French, English and Portuguese (I also speak a little Arabic!). Each person has their own pace of learning, so classes will be based on the needs of each student, their interests and their prior knowledge (and if there is no foreknowledge better! We can start this wonderful learning journey together!).

Spanish Lessons - Native Teacher with extensive experience with American and UK students (online or in Madrid)I am a Spanish native teacher, with extensive experience teaching Spanish to foreign students at from primary and secondary levels and higher education. I have taught American and UK students over the last seven years, whilst pursuing my studies in Spain and in the United Kingdom. I was recently awarded my PhD, through which I learnt methodological aspects of teaching different types of public from different backgrounds.
My classes are dynamic and centred on the student's progress, carrying out different interactive activities, role-playing and exercises that will make the student increase his/her confidence with the use of Spanish, whilst learning grammar and vocabulary. I usually give the students the opportunity to send me writings that I correct at home, and I recommend listening activities that will help the student to improve his/her understanding of the language during lessons. My complete proficiency of the English language makes it easier for the student to ask specific questions or to understand how some expressions work in Spanish, having my English explanation at hand (in order to make them fully understand the most difficult aspect of Spanish).
If you want to improve your Spanish in a quick and efficient manner, do not hesitate to get in touch and discuss options with me.

Spanish and English lessons with a native speaker. For all modalities and for all purposes!Hey dear future students,
As a language learner myself, I know how important is to have a great teacher who guides you throughout the process of learning a new language fast and effectively.
I like to make my classes efficient, which means, I prepare my classes according to your needs (I know we all have different goals). Besides, I consider that having fun classes is essential to enjoy learning a language, because as difficult as it can get sometimes, there is nothing more rewarding than achieving it.
I am here to help you, the only thing we will need from you is a notebook + pen. The rest will all come with effort and time!
Estaré encantada de ayudarte. Don’t hesitate to contact me! 😊
