Pronunciation comes first
We work on sounds, rhythm, stress, and intonation so students speak clearly and confidently.
Pronunciation-first. Confidence always.
English lessons for children, and advanced Spanish conversation for adults.
I work primarily with kids (ages 6–18) to build clear, natural English, and I also coach adults with B2+ Spanish who want real fluency through conversation.

About me
I teach with patience, structure, and a friendly energy, always focused on clear communication.
A teacher who cares about how you sound, not just what you know
My priority is helping students be understood confidently, whether they’re learning their first English sentences or refining advanced speaking skills.
I’ve taught at university level, worked as an English tutor in the United States (2004–2017), and collaborated in Spanish public schools in Salamanca (2021–2024).
“Progress happens when students feel safe to try, make mistakes, and try again.”
