About
Hello everyone! I'm María and I'm here to help you learn Spanish. I am a native Spanish speaker. I was born and raised in Spain before I moved to the United States at 13 years old. I'm currently doing my Bachelor's degree in Medicine in Madrid, Spain.
I specialize in conversational classes because I believe it's the best way to learn a new language and get to know my students. I also have a lot of experience working as a reinforcement for middle and high schoolers.
I like to offer a FREE 30-minute session to talk to the student and learn their wants and needs. This way, I can adapt the lessons to each and every one of you. It also lets me help anyone interested in learning Spanish, regardless of age or level.
I have always loved learning new languages and cultures, so I understand how challenging it can be. I try to take this into account in my tutoring lessons because each person learns at a different pace and in different ways. Throughout school and even now at university, I've realized that a lot of people come to me for help when they don't understand something. I believe this is because I always do my best to explain the answer in a way they can easily understand. I have been tutoring since I was in high school, but I have done it professionally for over 2 years.
I do most of my work in conversational classes and extra tutoring to help with school, but I can also help with homework, exam and presentation preparation, essay writing, and whatever you may need. I am easy to reach and will provide fast responses. Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a lesson. I hope to see you soon!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
In the first class, I have a conversation with them to get to know each other and learn their wants and needs. This way, I know how I can help them achieve their goals, and I can adapt the lessons. I specialize in conversational classes because I find it's the best way to learn a new language, but I can help with anything the student might need.
Before class, I ask my students if there is something they want to focus on (exam/presentation prep, homework help, essay writing, etc.) After class, I ask them for feedback.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am bilingual in English and Spanish after living in Spain and the United Sates for a long time. After having tutored my sister and peers in different subjects I decided to do it professionally, and now have over 2 years of experience. I have also taught Spanish to little kids while babysitting, so I have experience with younger children.
