Teaching Philosophy

Language isn't learned — it's lived. I believe Spanish is a tool for achieving real goals: closing a deal, connecting with family, navigating a new city, or advancing your career. That's why my approach is rooted in Communicative Language Teaching: we start with what you need to do, and let that purpose shape how you learn.

Instead of memorizing isolated grammar rules, you'll engage with meaningful contexts that trigger the authentic need to communicate. In that moment of genuine need — when you're negotiating, explaining, or persuading — your brain is primed to absorb language deeply and retain it long-term. My role? To design those powerful moments, guide your progress with precision, and turn every lesson into a step toward real-world confidence. The result: Spanish that sticks, because it was learned the way language was meant to be — in action.

Qualifications & Experience

🎓 Academic Background

Dual Master's degree holder in TESOL (The City College, New York) and Technical Translation (Imperial College London), with a BA in English Philology from the University of Vigo.

Fully certified to teach in three countries (USA, UK, and Spain), I combine academic rigor with practical pedagogical expertise. My advanced training in linguistics and translation technology ensures every lesson is grounded in precision — so you don't just learn Spanish, you understand its structure, nuance, and real-world application.

💼 Professional History

Over a decade of international teaching experience across three continents — from the New York City Department of Education to schools in Madrid and the Polytechnic of Turin, Italy.

I've designed curricula, coordinated language programs, and guided hundreds of students from diverse backgrounds to fluency. My experience as a professional translator and NHS interpreter means I teach real-world Spanish — the kind used in boardrooms, clinics, and international settings — not just textbook phrases.

🌟 Specializations

Expert in bilingual education with a unique advantage: my professional translation background in medical, technical, and business Spanish.

I specialize in helping professionals and serious learners master precision Spanish — whether you're preparing for DELE exams, advancing your career, or need industry-specific terminology. My trilingual expertise (Spanish-English-Italian) and deep understanding of language acquisition mean I can anticipate your challenges and accelerate your progress with targeted, results-driven instruction.

Services

Private Tutoring

Tailored 1-on-1 sessions built around your real-world goals. Whether you’re preparing for an exam, navigating a new culture, or advancing your career, I design meaningful contexts that trigger authentic communication—so you learn Spanish that sticks, not just textbook rules.

Corporate Training

Dynamic language programs for teams and professionals, delivered in 1-on-1 or small-group formats. We move beyond generic phrases to simulate real business scenarios, ensuring your team develops the precise Spanish needed to negotiate, present, and collaborate with confidence.

Human Translation, Proofreading & Editing

In an age of automated tools, precision still requires human insight. AI may process syntax, but it lacks real-world context—often producing hallucinations or awkward phrasing that miss the nuance of lived experience. I deliver translation and editorial services grounded in purpose: language as a tool for clear, accurate, and meaningful communication.
