Growing up in Valencia, Spain, I was immersed in a rich linguistic and cultural environment that shaped my deep understanding of the Spanish language. Valencia's unique position as a bilingual region where both Spanish (Castilian) and Valencian (a variety of Catalan) are spoken has given me a nuanced perspective on language learning and fluency. Being raised in such a setting not only strengthened my grasp of formal Spanish but also allowed me to understand regional dialects, idiomatic expressions, and the cultural subtleties that make the language come alive.

I am passionate about tutoring Spanish because language is more than just words—it's a gateway to a culture, a people, and a way of thinking. As a native speaker, I can provide insights that go beyond textbook learning. I can help students understand how to use the language naturally and confidently in real-world contexts, drawing from my firsthand experience in Valencia’s dynamic and multicultural environment. My goal is to help students not only master grammar and vocabulary but to speak and think in Spanish in a way that reflects its authentic use.

Tutoring Experience

In addition to being a native Spanish speaker, I hold a degree in Business from a university in Spain, which provides me with a strong foundation in both language and professional communication. My academic journey allowed me to deepen my understanding of Spanish, not just in everyday contexts but also in professional and academic settings. Throughout my studies, I gained valuable experience in writing reports, giving presentations, and engaging in formal discussions—all in Spanish. This background enables me to offer specialized tutoring for those looking to improve their Spanish for business or academic purposes. Whether you need help with formal writing, professional vocabulary, or mastering business etiquette in Spanish-speaking environments, I can guide you through it, thanks to my experience as both a student and a professional in Spain.

Tutoring Approach

Tailored to All Levels: Whether you're a beginner trying to build foundational skills or an advanced student looking to refine your fluency, I will tailor my lessons to your specific needs and learning style. From grammar to conversation, I can guide you through every aspect of the language.

Cultural Immersion: My experience growing up in Valencia allows me to offer more than just language lessons—I can also introduce you to Spanish culture, traditions, and even regional variations in speech. I use examples from everyday life in Spain, helping students connect the language to cultural contexts like festivals, food, and customs.

Real-World Language Use: Having lived in Spain, I understand the subtleties of how Spanish is spoken in real-life situations. I focus on practical language use, teaching not just formal Spanish but also colloquial expressions, slang, and the natural rhythm of conversation that you wouldn't get from a standard textbook. My lessons will help you sound more like a native speaker, whether you’re traveling, working, or simply learning for fun.
