Biography:
I am pleased to introduce myself as your language coach.

I have studied Musical Education and Teaching of Spanish as a Second Language at the National University of Costa Rica and the Technological Institute of Costa Rica respectively. I am also accredited by the Instituto Cervantes Albuquerque in New Mexico, USA as a DELE examiner from levels A1 to C2.

I have been teaching for over 25 years. She has worked as a Spanish teacher for several universities and institutions such as Universidad Veritas, Universidad Nacional, Universidad Latina de Costa Rica, and Colegio Británico de Costa Rica. I teach adults from beginner to advanced level in groups or individual settings.

In my classes, I like to make our lessons enjoyable and interactive, so my students look forward to the day of class to learn more. I like to have an objective so that my students aim high and feel that the classes are dynamic and adapted to their interests and objectives. I like to understand the levels of my students, as well as their interests, to adapt the methodology and materials to their needs.

If you want to learn Spanish, you can choose between a face-to-face class in San Pedro de Montes de Oca, in San José, Costa Rica or virtual lessons from anywhere on the planet where you are. I offer completely personalized Spanish language and culture lessons, focused on the interests and needs of my students and the focus is mainly communicative.

For virtual classes there are several technological platforms and tools that we can use, always contemplating those that best suit your comfort and needs.

I am Costa Rican and my mother tongue is Spanish.
